> The National Federation of the Blind Community Service Division is excited to tell you that we, along with Green Up Orlando <http://www.cityoforlando.net/parks/green/>, will be offering the opportunity to participate in a park beautification community service project. This service project will be a part of the various activities and events set to take place during the 77th convention of the National Federation of the Blind and will be unique in that we as blind people from across the nation will be taking an active role in beautifying a public space while demonstrating the teamwork, alternative techniques, and positive blindness philosophy that exemplify everything we are and do in the National Federation of the Blind.
