About this service
The Virtual Vision Mate program gives volunteers an opportunity to engage in friendly conversations with people who are blind or partially sighted.
Your support is urgently needed during this unprecedented time. You can schedule your chats on a set day and time every week, or you can schedule week-to-week, whatever works for both of you.
Volunteers will be screened, and you'll have an opportunity to ask questions before you're connected with someone with sight loss. The next step is for you and the person with sight loss to be introduced by phone or online. We will provide you with a handy conversation guide to help you get started.
To volunteer as a Virtual Vision Mate, complete the online application form. If you have any issues with the application form, please call us at 1-800-563-2642.
*Please note: Due to the volume of requests, it may take a couple of days for the CNIB team to respond.
