Canadian Helen Keller Centre welcomes and appreciates the
help provided by volunteers. We particularly appreciate assistance
in the following areas:

enable persons who are shut in and not able to travel independently
to attend the monthly meetings of their organization or to get
out and do their shopping
-
Friendly
Visiting - to
alleviate the isolation caused by deaf-blindness, to get out
for a walk, go swimming, play a game of cards, etc.
-
Intervenors/Interpreters/Communicators
- through
sign language, finger spelling, keyboarding, 2-hand manual (a
tactile spelling system), large print notes, and braille - provide
access to information, people and places.

terms of raising awareness and funds. With all our UPCOMING EVENTS, we need volunteers to organize & help. Please
