How can you help CAB?
Based in Fountain Valley, California the Community Association of the Blind (CAB) is reaching out to every responsible member of our community to assist with this challenging endeavor. Many individuals are committing to the organizational structure of CAB, while many others are making tax deductible pledges and donations to support financial requirements of the many programs that CAB provide for free and at no charge to its blind and visually impaired community. CAB programs encompass all age groups and provide opportunities for vocational orientation, recreational activities, and leadership building skills for all blind and visually impaired at large.
CAB strongly believes that it is very important for our blind and visually impaired members to take a more active role in their community by feeling confident enough to ride a bus, ride a train, ride a taxi, and use other forms of transportation to get to places in their local communities. CAB also promotes independence in travel and mobility by encouraging our blind and visually impaired members to become more active socially. CAB wants to help their blind and visually impaired members become a productive part of society.
This type of programming and training require investments, equipment, material, and resources that would allow us to provide these needed programs. Will you take part in this great community endeavor? It can be anything from volunteering your time for some of CAB's recreational activities or assisting the CAB Board and CAB Volunteer Staff with any special events. Maybe your business or company would like to help sponsor a CAB activity or function. Maybe you enjoy volunteering time to help transport our blind and visually impaired members to and from CAB activities. Maybe you have an item or gift that you would like to donate to CAB. Whatever it may be CAB is very grateful and appreciative of all and any support given.
CAB is in great need of financial support from individuals, families, organizations, companies, and businesses who are willing to fund CAB on a regular basis to keep CAB programs running year round. Tax deductible donations provide the necessary computer equipment, facilities, and resources to the blind and visually impaired that aren’t being provided anywhere else. Can we here at CAB encourage you to be a founding part of the Community Association of the Blind? We know that you will feel greatly rewarded with your contribution by investing in an organization that is dedicated to improving the overall quality of life of the blind and visually impaired here in Southern California.
