__**FULL NAME:**  __
 The Royal New Zealand Foundation of the Blind.

__DATE OF FORMAT:__
The foundation began in 1890 but formally became an organisation truly accountable to its members in April 2003.

__**A SHORT HISTORY:**__
The R.N.Z.F.B (The Royal New Zealand Foundation of the Blind) began in 1890 which provides services for blind, deaf blind and vision-impaired people. After a while the foundation offered sheltered employment. The first formal services for blind and vision-impaired people were a school and residence in Parnell. The foundation went on to offer its members shelter. It became a foundation to its members in April 2003.

__A SPECIFIC EXAMPLE OF THIS AGENCY IN ACTION: __
An example is when I have seen a guide dog helping a blind man cross the road.

__WHY DO YOU THINK THIS AGENCY WAS ESTABLISHED:__
Because if they didn't there would be no hope of blind people surviving, or getting from A to B.
