You can also buy our popular large-print calendars and diaries showcasing art by people who are vision impaired. And for the first time, we are offering you the chance to own inspiring limited edition artworks, printed on canvas and signed by the artist - ideal for posting to friends this Christmas along with one of our festive greeting cards!
We also have a great range of audio books, including lifestyle titles, best-selling fiction and children's favourites. And the kids will love our Seeing Eye Dog cuddly toys and cute cards.
All proceeds from the sale of these gifts help fund vital Vision Australia services for people like three-year-old Emily. Little Emily who was just nine months old when she was diagnosed with Leber's congenital amaurosis, a rare genetic eye condition that affects retinal development.
At first her parents, Rose and Matthew, had no idea how they would raise a child who is blind in a visual world. However, with the help of Vision Australia, they came to realise that blindness need not be a barrier in life.
"Today she runs about and plays like any other two-year-old. There's no stopping her!" they said.
By purchasing gifts from Vision Australia, you are helping us to open up a world of possibilities for more kids just like Emily.
Purchase your Christmas gifts today at www.visionaustralia.org/shop or call 1800 42 20 77 to place an order or to be sent a copy of our catalogue.
