October 15 is White Cane Awareness Day. This day is dedicated to the important symbol of blindness, the long white cane and the independence for blind people this mobility tool represents.
In fact, the entire month of October is about celebrating the achievements of blind people and making the general public aware of blind people’s unique experiences and the tools they use.
To honor that, Adaptations, LightHouse’s blindness products store, is offering 10% off all white canes and white cane accessories all October.
Below, we highlight just a few of the products discounted this month.
