On the occasion, Rohit Trivedi, Volunteer Arushi, said, “White Cane is the symbol of freedom, independence and confidence for the visually impaired. Hence, it is important to educate the visually impaired students on the effective use of white cane at an early stage of their lives. We are extremely proud to be associated with Amway India and have been consistently celebrating International White Cane Day together, year after year and our relationship has become stronger with a clear focus of enabling the visually challenged to have a better future.”
