[Community-service] BOARD MEMBER SPOTLIGHT

[Jeanetta price]

BOARD MEMBER SPOTLIGHT: 

Kyra Sweeney - Secretary 

Kyra Sweeney is originally from California and currently lives in Denver, Colorado. Although she began attending conventions of the National Federation of the Blind at four years old, she truly became involved in the organization after attending a summer program at the Colorado Center for the Blind. Kyra counts community service as one of the most important and rewarding parts of her life. She has volunteered with the Los Angeles region of the American Red Cross for two years, working to assist survivors of disasters and to spread awareness about disaster preparedness. While attending college, she also volunteered at a local elementary school as a classroom assistant and tutor for students. Kyra believes in the potential of all blind people to contribute to their communities in valuable ways. As the secretary of the Community Service Division, she hopes to connect members with one another so that experienced volunteers can help those who are just starting out to be confident in their ability to give back.
