Super Lube is
helping the visually impaired to obtain independent living skills training
by raising funds for Independence for the Blind of West Florida's
transportation fund. Donations of $1
to $5 are being accepted at all Pensacola-area Super Lube locations. In return,
customers will be allowed to personalize a card to hang in the Super Lube
store throughout the fun-raising campaign. The blind and
visually impaired seek training from Independence for the Blind of West
Florida, a nonprofit agency, to learn skills such as reading Braille and
walking with white canes. Other services include training in
computers, employment and child development. Services are provided
free of charge and costs of community transportation are reimbursed to the
blind, many who have low or fixed incomes. the fund-raising campaign
began Thursday at all 11 Pensacola-area Super Lube locations and will run
until the organization's goal of $6,000 is met. |
