In a Nutshell

White canes ensure safe mobility & independence for blind & visually impaired students

The Fine Print

Since the Model White Cane Law recognized that blind and visually impaired persons are fully entitled to access any public place, such as sidewalks, streets, and public facilities, white canes have become a more widely recognizable way for motorists to identify visually impaired pedestrians. As part of its partnership with the Indiana School for the Blind and Visually Impaired, the Indiana Blind Children's Foundation (IBCF) plans to supply blind and visually impaired students with the white canes, which are essential devices for safe and independent mobility.

After receiving their white canes, students receive comprehensive mobility training and orientation at school so they can use them safely and effectively in both private and public settings. Each student receives the specific type of cane that most appropriately meets his or her needs. However, budget cuts and increasing expenses at the state-funded school may prevent it from being able to equip each student with a white cane before they begin orientation.

Join G-Team and donate $10 to help blind and visually impaired students stay safe and independent. If G-Team members raise $300, then IBCF can supply 10 students at the Indiana School for the Blind and Visually Impaired with white canes. Each additional $30 raised will be used to equip another blind or visually impaired student with a white cane.

Unlike traditional Groupon deals, G-Team campaigns typically don't offer you a "discount" or "savings." So "buyer" beware—when you click "Buy" to donate your time or money to a worthwhile G-Team cause, the only discount you may receive is 100 percent off free, priceless karma. Read more about G-Team.

The Groupon Guide to: Color Theory

If you're a visual artist, you've probably got a box of crayons, a crayon sharpener, and a tiny ceramic cup you store the crayon shavings in so you can later melt them into a new crayon color that you call "garbage." You've also probably got a good understanding of color theory. If you're not a visual artist, here's some information that will be new to you:

• A color wheel is a circular diagram that selects the best colors for your work of art based on which colors you land on when you're blindfolded and stabbing with a knife.

• Staring at warm colors, such as red, dark red, and reddish black, makes your body feel like it's been covered in a wool blanket and then buried from the neck down.

• Staring at cool colors, such as cool red, makes your body feel like it's been covered in a loose layer of gauze and left to get even cooler beneath a nice, shady tree in the middle of nowhere.

• Complementary colors are defined as "any two colors that, when combined, produce a small egg containing the color ‘prison-shoe gray.’"
