DBWA, RAISING DEAFBLIND AWARENESS, ONE STEP AT A TIME
14 October 2023 @ 9:30 am - 3:00 pm
Deafblind West Australians invite you to join us on Saturday 14 October at Tomato Lake Reserve for our Annual White Cane Day Sponsored Walk to raise funds for our peer support group and to celebrate International White Cane Day 2023.
What is a sponsored walk ?
A sponsored walk is a fundraising event where many people walk a set course or distance together to raise money to support their charity by collecting donations or pledges from people they know.
You can help DBWA fundraise money by asking your friends, family, neighbors and colleagues to fill in the DBWA White Cane Day Sponsored Walk Form to say they will give you money to walk around Tomato Lake.
Money can be paid the following ways:
– CASH payment
– Direct Debit payment to DBWA Bank Account
– DBWA Square Reader Tap-and-Go payment at the event
(All payment details are on the DBWA Sponsored Walk Form)
Everyone is welcome to participate in the walk with our Deafblind Community and help raise funds for DBWA.
We welcome people who are Deaf. People who are hard of hearing. People who are hearing.
People who are blind. People who are low vision.
Auslan students. Auslan Interpreters.
Communication Guides.
Support Workers.
Sighted guides.
Colleagues.
Family. Friends. Old and new.
Supporters. Volunteers.
The more people who join our walk, the more money we can raise.
You can walk a set number of steps or laps if you want or you can walk for a set amount of time. It’s up to you.
Every step you take will help raise deafblind awareness and every dollar you raise will help DBWA to continue to support our Deafblind Community in WA.
