Did you know that a cane can be a lifeline for someone with visual impairment?

In honour of Mandela Day, The Star Foundation donated 670 canes at the value of R50 each, to the SA Guide-Dogs Association for the Blind (SAGA).

Blind and visually impaired people rely on canes to navigate the world with confidence, freedom and security.

In a world where independence is often taken for granted, organizations like SAGA for the Blind play a crucial role in empowering individuals with visual impairments.

Established in 1953, with a mission to enhance the quality of life of visually impaired South Africans, SAGA has been a beacon of hope and assistance for decades.

As a non-profit organization, SAGA's work transcends practical assistance; it transforms lives. Each partnership between a visually impaired individual and a guide dog is a testament to resilience and newfound freedom. As a result of these partnerships, individuals gain not only safe navigation but also a sense of companionship and empowerment that transcends physical limitations.

You can make a difference. Your donation to the South African Guide Dog Association for the Blind helps to train guide dogs, provide canes and empower visually impaired individuals to live more independent lives.
