Balanced, Protected, and Informed O&M for Active Daily Living

The grant award will help Safe Toddles place mobility tools directly into the hands of children aged 10 months and older. It will also support training so each recipient has help learning how the Belt Cane fits into daily movement, exploration, and safe travel.

Freedom means having room to move. Learn how the Pediatric Belt Cane gives blind children the touch information they need for safe, independent mobility.

White Cane Day has new meaning for children who are blind from birth. With the Pediatric Belt Cane and Rectangular AMD, even toddlers can now join the celebration — walking safely and independently using touch for balance, protection, and exploration.

Safe Toddles receives a $30,000 grant from the William G. and Helen C. Hoffman Foundation—their second year of support—to expand early mobility access for blind children through Pediatric Belt Canes, training, and family outreach.
