<div class=""><font class="">Hi all,</font></div>
<div class=""><font class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font class="">On the 75 Days of Service call earlier this evening, I
said that I would send an e-mail to the listserv with the Community Service blog
address and how to contact me if you have questions about or submissions for the
blog.</font></div>
<div class=""><font class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font class="">The blog can be found by going to
<a href="http://nfbcommunityservice.wordpress.com" class="">nfbcommunityservice.wordpress.com</a>. There you can read about a variety of
community service projects in which people have participated and perhaps get
some ideas about projects you might want to undertake yourself or as a
group.</font></div>
<div class=""><font class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font class="">It is our hope that during the 75 Days of Service
campaign, people will participate in various service projects, both as groups
and individuals, and then share their experiences via the blog. On the call, I
encouraged people to write to me if they have a service experience they want to
share. Even if you’re not exactly sure how to present that experience in the
most compelling way, send me an e-mail and tell me what you’re thinking, and
we’ll figure out how you can put it in writing. My e-mail address is <a href="mailto:christine-parsons@sbcglobal.net" class="">christine-parsons@sbcglobal.net</a>.</font></div>
<div class=""><font class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font class="">I look forward to hearing your stories and getting them
on the blog for the world to see!</font></div>
