Dine in the Dark

Dine in the Dark

Inspired by Helen Keller’s call for Lions to be “Knights of the Blind,” Dine in the Dark is a unique event where participants dine in complete darkness, raising awareness about vision loss. Hosted by Lions clubs across Canada, this immersive experience supports The Difference Campaign, with all proceeds funding the new Dog Guide training school.

Lions clubs interested in hosting can contact Richard Banyard at rbanyard@dogguides.com for more information.
