[Community-service] {Disarmed} Fwd: 2015 Martin Luther King Jr Day of Service Available Funding

Thu Apr 23 17:15:55 UTC 2015

What a great way to  build service opportunities that engage us in the community  in creative ways!
 Let’s find ways to  take advantage of this  in order to  show our  communities that blindness is not the   characteristic that defines us or our future.
  Best,
  Darian

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can have the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back.

 “”...The challenges we face will not be solved with one meeting in one night. Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time.

We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek...” -Barack Obama     
 Your  unwanted vehicle can be  just what the blind need to make possibilities reality.
