[Cacommunity-service] NFB of California Community Service Division Seminar At the 2016 State Convention

[Kyra Sweeney]

Hello all:
  Would you like to learn about finding a community service
opportunity, volunteering with your chapter, or confidently addressing
challenges you might face while serving? If so, the National
Federation of the Blind of California Community Service Division
invites you to our seminar at this year’s state convention, which will
take place on Friday, October 21st at 4 PM in the Granada Room of the
Embassy Suites. we will offer great presentations from blind people
who are doing community service and want to share how you can show
your community that blindness is not the characteristic that defines
you. We will highlight the impact that chapters can make by
participating in service projects, and end with a discussion about the
future of our division and how you can get involved. Also, we will be
selling raffle tickets for an exciting basket of items.

  The meeting agenda is pasted below for your convenience, and is also
attached as a Word document. We hope you will join us, and take this
opportunity to learn more about what the California Community Service
Division is all about.
