It's an image, so you'll have to do OCR on it.  If you have JAWS 
13, this is built in; otherwise, you'll have to use Kurzweil or 
OpenBook.

Merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous new year!

"The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight.  The 
real problem is the misunderstanding and lack of education that 
exists.  If a blind person has the proper training and 
opportunity, blindness can be reduced to a mere physical 
nuisance."
-- Kenneth Jernigan (President, National Federation of the Blind, 
1968-1986

 The I C.A.N.  Foundation helps blind and visually impaired youth 
in Maryland say "I can," by empowering them through providing 
assistive technology and scholarships to camps and conventions 
which help them be equal with their sighted peers.  For more 
information about the Foundation and to support our work, visit

 Dear Ms.  Sena,

 I would like to share with you the link to the We Connect Now 
website.
 http://weconnectnow.wordpress.com/ The website was created while 
I was a
 college student with a grant I received from YP4 to develop a 
website to
 serve college students with disabilities.  The website was 
developed in an
 effort to connect and integrate college students with 
disabilities as a
 virtual community with a voice on important issues.
 The We Connect Now website has been up and serving college 
students with
 disabilities since April of 2008.

 I wanted to share the We Connect Now website with you so that 
you may
 post
 it as a resource in your website or otherwise share it with 
students that
 you serve or have contact with.  The website has been used as a 
resource
 by
 institutions of higher learning and has been linked to by 
colleges and
 universities and groups serving people with disabilities in 50 
states and
 at
 least 9 foreign countries.

 I thank you for any and all help that you and your office may 
give me in
 promoting this project as a service to all college students with
 disabilities.

 Sincerely,

 Gabriela McCall Delgado
