It is Braille Enrichment for Literacy and learning. Different
states run BELL programs during the summer, from 2 weeks to a month. They
are to help kids learn Braille.<br><br>
We are running one at BLIND Inc. in August.<br><br>

<dd>As you know, our BELL Academy is being held from August 7 through
August 18 Monday through Friday. We have a good number of
applicants already and there is still time to apply.<br><br>
<dd>Â <br><br>
<dd>Our BELL Academy is in need of volunteers to read to kids. I
would guess that braille readers are preferred, but there may be other
reading options and other jobs for volunteers. Volunteers need to
go through a background check so it is important that those interested do
not wait until the last minute to apply. If you are interested in
volunteering or have questions, contact our BELL Coordinator, Briley
O’Connor at <a href="mailto:BELL@NFBMN.org">BELL@NFBMN.org</a> with
your questions or information.<br><br>
<dd>Â <br><br>
<dd>Finally, we are also in need of volunteer drivers for the BELL
Academy as well. If you know of people who might be willing to
volunteer, please also contact Briley at
<a href="mailto:bell@nfbmn.org">bell@nfbmn.org</a> with that information.
