[Community-Service] Meet The Blind Month

[Ashley Bramlett]

Hello,

Our local chapters have not done anything recently.
In the past, some members have went to schools to present things.

The student division in Virginia is organizing a social bowling event. While 
not specific to directly educating the public by handing out items or 
answering questions about alternative techniques, I think the event is very 
educational. The public can see that blind people are regular people who can 
have fun like anyone else.

Good morning fellow federationists,
October in the National Federation of the Blind is Meet the  Blind Month.
This month has historically been   an opportunity for us as members and 
chapters to showcase in creative ways  the tools we use,  the jobs we have 
and the organization that does so much work on the local and national level 
to improve the lives of  blind people.
  How can we, as members of this division go about contributing to meet the 
blind month?  What plans do we have as a division of the federation to 
actively take part in this month long public education campaign in a way 
that is consistent with our national organization?
Best,
  Darian
