Participants of all abilities are welcome, with volunteer walking guides available to ensure an inclusive and engaging experience for all. Don’t miss your chance to explore, connect, and make a difference!
Our Cause: As Charlotte grows, we are ensuring it grows inclusively. Our impact is measured by barriers removed: when a career path is open, when healthcare is equitable, and when technology is a bridge rather than a divide. By engineering this new reality today, we are protecting the independence and opportunity of the thousands of North Carolinians facing vision loss tomorrow.
