Raising funds for Braille House is a fun and rewarding way to make a difference in supporting children and adults who are blind or have low vision to achieve their life’s goals.
Your individual, corporate or group’s efforts enables Braille House to continue to do what it has done since 1897 …teach and create braille.
Braille is brilliant because it empowers people who are blind or have low vision to be literate. These tiny dots support them to live independently, attain their desired level of education, increase their chances for employment and enable them to interact with communities just like everyone else.
There are many ways you can fundraise for Braille House.

To get you started, here are some suggestions…
Fun Runs and Marathons: Fun runs are an adventurous way to meet new people, raise money for Braille House and challenge your fitness. Organise one yourself or participate in one of the many hundred held across Australia every year – here’s a link to just a few. Add to the fun by putting together a team with a Dotty themed running gear. Ready - set - go Dotty!
A-thon Event: a-thons work pretty much the same – either alone or with others seek friends, family, work colleagues, church congregations and anyone else you know to sponsor you (and your team) for the time or amount of the chosen activity you achieve during the nominated timeframe. If you are crafty get sponsored 10 hours of craft making; dance groups can raise money for 10 hours of dancing; or if you are a bit of a couch potato get sponsored for watching 10 hours of TV – you get the picture. A-thons are a great way to have fun whilst going a bit Dotty!
