Presents the Wacky fact on White Cane Safety Day
#RedFM #RedFMShillong #RJZac #White canes are white because of #George A. Bonham. In #1930, Bonham, president of the #Peoria Lions Club (Illinois), watched a man who was blind attempting to cross a street. The man’s cane was black and motorists couldn’t see it, so #Bonham proposed painting the cane white with a red stripe to make it more noticeable.
