Help Us Build 2,500 Lighted White Canes!
Be a part of something transformative by supporting the See Me Cane campaign! We’re excited to share that thanks to early donations, we’ve already produced 150 See Me Canes. But we’re just getting started.
We’re now working to create opportunities for visually impaired individuals to manufacture the See Me Cane themselves. Your donation not only helps put a lighted white cane into the hands of those who need it most, but also provides meaningful employment for visually impaired individuals.
Each See Me Cane costs $200 to produce, and with your help, we aim to empower independence, mobility, and safety for thousands of people. Through our partnership with the Living Beyond the Label Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization, your contributions are tax-deductible, making it even easier to support this life-changing mission.
Donate today and help us reach our goal of providing 2,500 lighted white canes by the end of the year while supporting visually impaired individuals in more ways than ever before!
What is the See Me Cane?
The See Me Cane is a lighted blind cane (traditionally called the white cane). The See Me Cane provides a new level in safe navigation for the blind. The bright internal light within the See Me Cane makes the user more visible in low-light conditions. The unique See Me Cane feels like a normal blind cane, but as the user sweeps and taps the lighted See Me Cane, it makes a great light show, drawing people’s attention to the cane and to its visually impaired user.
How Does It Work?
The See Me Cane is a simple but powerful blind cane. It comes in different sizes (from 2 feet to 6 1/2 feet). Running on a rechargeable battery, this LED lighted cane can be seen by nighttime drivers up to 100 yards away. The handle has two buttons: one for the on/off function and another that causes the cane to vibrate letting the user know its on/off status.
