Letsile Tebogo Charitable Foundation Donates White Canes to BABPS

24 April, 2026

The Botswana Association of the Blind and Partially Sighted (BABPS) extends its profound gratitude to Botswana Olympic champion, Letsile Tebogo, and the Letsile Tebogo Charitable Foundation for their generous and impactful contribution to the organization.

 

In a special handover ceremony, the Foundation officially donated high-quality white canes to BABPS. These essential mobility tools represent far more than simple equipment; they provide immediate independence, enhanced safety, and renewed confidence for persons with visual impairments as they navigate their daily environments.

 

The BABPS Executive Committee highly commends Mr. Tebogo and his Foundation for their commitment to advancing inclusive mobility and strengthening disability advocacy efforts across Botswana. Such meaningful partnerships play a vital role in raising awareness and dismantling barriers that continue to affect visually impaired citizens.

 

This timely donation will directly support BABPS’s ongoing mobile distribution and training initiatives across regional branches, ensuring that beneficiaries across the country continue to receive essential mobility support and orientation services.

 

BABPS reaffirms its appreciation for this act of solidarity and encourages continued collaboration with individuals, institutions, and partners committed to building a more inclusive and accessible society for all.
