Blindness Awareness Month is observed every October, focusing on raising awareness about the challenges faced by individuals who are blind or visually impaired. This month aims to educate the public about vision loss and celebrate the achievements of those affected. Activities during this time include blindfolded sensory experiences, volunteering at local organizations, and hosting fundraisers. One key event is White Cane Awareness Day on October 13, which highlights the white cane's importance for mobility and independence. Charities and organizations play a vital role in providing support, resources, and advocacy to improve the quality of life for individuals with visual impairments. The overarching goal is to foster understanding and create a more inclusive community for everyone.
