Subject: [NFB-Seniors] Seeing your help with short testimonials

Dear all,

My name is Patti Chang and I serve as our Director of Outreach for NFB. I am
dropping a note to ask for your assistance. We are looking for short (100 to
200 words) stories from seniors about retirement and staying active as well
as mentoring. I help with our monthly newsletter, Imagineering our Future.
This quarter we are focusing in on our seniors. Bob Gardner wrote about
learning Braille for our January issue and I am looking for help with our
February issue which deals with retirement and staying active and our March
issue which will focus in on senior mentoring. We are also collecting more
senior stories for our storybank.

Please send me a 100 to 200 word note telling about how you stay active in
retirement and what you are active doing or how you are involved in
mentoring or being mentored. These should be kind of informally chatty. They
do not need to be polished. Please just send what you can to me offline at
pchang at nfb.org<mailto:pchang at nfb.org>. The deadline for February is 2/1/20
and March is 3/1/20.

Your blurb could tell how the Federation motivates or facilitates what you
do. Maybe some of what you do is Federation activity. Would love to hear
from those of you who are active in sports, church, or volunteering too. You
might talk about your favorite mentoring moment. Sometimes we teach best by
example or learn best from example.

Thanks so much for your help with this.
