When you participate in electing your leaders, you have a voice. membership is the cornerstone of the NFB. While the National Federation of the Blind offers a lot of nice things for blind people, it cannot exist without membership.

>> Greetings Dogs and Dog Lovers,
>> We look forward to you joining us on Sunday, but more importantly we look forward to you joining us for the whole next year. There are plenty of good things happening and much work to do in The Colorado Association of Guide Dog Users. Joining us in the great work is a big part of what we do, but a small, significant part is paying our dues and showing with our dollars that we are proud to be COAGDU members.
