International Children's
Day celebration at the Brasov Association of the Blind
June 1, 2006, Brasov |
|
On June 1, 2006 the Brasov
Association of the Blind organized a festivity for the 47 visually
impaired children registered in the county, to celebrate the International
Children's Day.
"This festivity, where both visually
impaired and unimpaired children played and enjoyed the event together,
without any kind of discrimination, proves that we, the adults, still have
much to learn, even from children, about the real integration of visually
impaired people in the society" stated Mr. Virgil Lazar, President of the
Brasov Association of the Blind. |

The event took place at the Brasov
Blind Club, with the participation of the Association's management and
volunteers. The festivity was organized with the support of the eight
students forming the Brasov Association of the Blind's volunteer group.
They decorated the club and raised funds for the purchase of juice and
candies.
The generosity of one of the
McDonald's restaurants situated in Brasov allowed to the Brasov
Association of the Blind to distribute McDonald's menus and toys to the
visually impaired children present at the event. |
|
The festivity was an occasion to
contribute to the integration of visually impaired people, as to the event
were invited not only visually impaired children, but also unimpaired
children which have visually impaired parents. This offered them the
opportunity to meet, to play together and to form new friendships.
