2024 White Cane Day Celebration and march across the Golden Gate Bridge!
Saturday, October 5, 2024
After such an incredible success and historic White Cane Day march last October, we are at it again in 2024! March with friends from LightHouse and the blind and low vision communities as we come together to traverse the iconic Golden Gate Bridge in celebration of White Cane Day, symbolizing the strength and determination of those who navigate the world with the support of white canes and dog guides. It's not just a march; it's a journey towards inclusion, awareness, and support for the blind and low vision community. Please save the date, mark your calendars, and tell your friends to stay tuned for more details on this empowering event!
