We are a chapter of the Canadian Council of the Blind, (registered charity number 119218899RR0001). We can offer tax receipts for donations of $25 or more.
We are committed to supporting blind runners and our volunteers from across Canada. We do not believe someone who works so hard to get to the start line should be denied the opportunity to participate due to financial challenges or other needs. Whether it is someone working to stay active and fit through casual runs or looking to participate in any of the many formal races offered across Canada, we are here to help.
Donations are used to support our members to get to the start line and make it across the finish line. We also provide all new members with a tether so that they can be guided safely, and a bright orange club shirt so that other people know to give our members some extra space when they are out for a run.
Many people living with disabilities have limited incomes so as a result, we remove those barriers by contributing to the following:
- race entrance fees
- travel to events
- shoes
- proper apparel
