2026 White Cane Walk

A walk that stops traffic and starts a celebration

A walk that stops traffic and starts a celebration.

This year’s White Cane Walk is more than a fundraiser. It’s a milestone celebration.

As Cleveland Sight Center prepares to celebrate its 120th birthday this fall, we’re inviting Northeast Ohio to step forward in a bold, unforgettable way. We’re expecting record-breaking participation, and with an ever-changing financial landscape impacting nonprofits nationwide, the need for community support has never been greater.

For the first time in White Cane Walk history, we’re closing the streets, transforming the walk into a true parade of purpose. By walking on the streets, we’re making a powerful statement: accessibility, inclusion and independence deserve to be seen, celebrated and supported.

Whether you walk, fundraise, volunteer, or sponsor, your participation fuels life-changing programs and services for people of all ages who are blind or visually impaired. Join us in making history and help us reach our $150,000 fundraising goal.

PLEASE NOTE: Registration is REQUIRED to attend and walk-ins will not be permitted due to expected high attendance. We suggest a $25 per person donation at registration but appreciate any donation of personal significance.
