I am a mother of</span><br><span>three (two boys and one girl), and I have one granddaughter. I am a</span><br><span>woman of God, and know where my help comes from. In 2013, I attended</span><br><span>the Associate Services for the blind, currently known as Vision Link.</span><br><span>There, I learned how to maintain my independence. I learned mobility,</span><br><span>some Braille, how to separate and count my money, etc. While attending</span><br><span>ASB, I was introduced to the NFB. There, I am a board member and</span><br><span>ambassador at state and national conventions, a mentor, and on the</span><br><span>calling committee.</span><br><span>Now, I have to roll out the red carpet for this one. In 2020, I joined</span><br><span>the Community Service Division, where I learned that I can do</span><br><span>community service anywhere. If it was not for CSD, I would not know</span><br><span>how to go about getting involved in my community in my city where I</span><br><span>reside, which is Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. With the community</span><br><span>service division, I was able to help serve with the Ronald McDonald</span><br><span>House in Maryland, and the Covenant House in New Orleans, and I can</span><br><span>not wait to serve in Houston in 2023.</span><br><span>In Philadelphia, I’ve served as a mentor with Girls Today, Leaders</span><br><span>Tomorrow (GTLT) under the United Way. GTLT is a program that assists</span><br><span>young ladies ages 8 until they graduate high school. There, they learn</span><br><span>how to set tables, write resumes, social skills, and how to be</span><br><span>professional. They participated in career day, and even learned how to</span><br><span>donate and serve for 375 thousand plus homeless children in</span><br><span>Pennsylvania. I also was involved with two groups affiliated with the</span><br><span>church I attend, Boys to Men and Saved, Anointed, Sanctified,</span><br><span>Sensational Youth (SASSY). These youth groups participated in career</span><br><span>day and other activities that helped develop their skills in</span><br><span>leadership. I thank God for allowing me to have sight with no physical</span><br><span>vision. That allowed me to join the NFB AND CSD and gain a new family</span><br><span>and a whole new world. God is not through with me yet. Diamonds are</span><br><span>forever!</span><br><span></span><br><span>_______________________________________________</span><br><span>Community-Service mailing list</span><br><span>Community-Service@nfbnet.org</span><br><span>http://nfbnet.org/mailman/listinfo/community-service_nfbnet.org</span><br><span>To unsubscribe, change your list options or get your account info for Community-Service:</span><br><span>http://nfbnet.org/mailman/options/community-service_nfbnet.org/price.jeanetta%40gmail.com</span><br></div></blockquote></div></div></div></body></html>
