The Relais Givrés are pleased to announce their support this year of the Fondation I See.
The I See Foundation was founded in 2009. Its aim is to promote the independence and integration of visually impaired people but also to support them in their complete development in our society.
We promote their mobility by providing them a free guide dog. It brings safety and confidence in the travels, but it is also an excellent relational vector.
The I See Foundation also wants to give a new perspective (positive, dynamic and sometimes surprising) on the visual impairment. We encourage visually impaired people to cope with their disability, especially young people, but we also foster those around them and the general public to become aware of their potential (rather than their limitations) and to exploit it.
To this end, we develop different activities for :
- Developing autonomy by learning new technologies or with specially developed activities for visually impaired people.
- Improving mobility through good management/awareness of oneself and one's space.
- Improving self-confidence by participating to overtaking activities and especially by constituting a network of sighted people.
We also regularly participate in sensitization. It is by answering each person's questions without taboo and by creating participatory sensitization that we contribute to train citizens to be open to the difference.
For more information, visit the Fondation I See website.
It is also possible to make a donation directly to the Fondation I See. You will find all the informations about the procedure here: donate to Fondation I See.
