Upon loosing his sight in a hunting accident he underwent the adjustment training course offered by the CNIB. Returning to his home 'province he determined to realize a life-long ambition of opening a tourist lodge. He and his wife invested in one in the north and today he is the, owner of a successful hunting and tourist lodge. ' He 'had the will to' Succeed and with the over 80 services which are available to the 30,000 blind people in 'Canada from the CNIB, he is living a full and enjoyable life today. Your contribution to the CNIB annual appeal in Lucknow will help. CNIB continue to provide the way for the successful rehabilitation of blind Canadians in our community and across the country.
