Walk for Independence

Join us for a day of empowerment as we walk together to show that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future.

This event raises funds to support the work of the Nebraska affiliate, including advocacy, education, and programs that promote independence and opportunity for blind individuals across the state.
