Our goal is to encourage new members to join by sharing the stories of how the NFB changes lives. As affiliate and chapter presidents, we need your leadership to make this campaign a success. First, we ask that you share your story, and encourage your members to share theirs, on social media (Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram) using #WhyImAFederationist. Tell us what the NFB means to you or how the NFB has helped you. Second, we are asking that each chapter set a goal for themselves of bringing on at least one new member by March 31. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"> Finally, we want to welcome new members into the Federation family. To this end, we ask that you fill out the <a href="https://nfb.org/new-member-form">new member form</a>. If applicable, please also include the new member’s Twitter handle.
