[il-talk] How has the NFB impacted you

[David Meyer]

Throughout my life, I knew I could, or at least, I thought I could succeed
in a career that involved being a musician in some way.  For much of that
time, I had my doubts that I could succeed in an endeavor that was
non-musical.  Though this activity did not earn me income, my involvement in
NewsLine as a state coordinator and a channel administrator gave me the
confidence to realize that I could succeed in something that was not
musical.

What the NFB has done for me? The NFB has helped me gain independence.
Having independence gives me conference to keep moving forward. Gina Falvo
