[Nebraska-Students] BEAM Walk This Saturday

[Jamie K. Richey]

Greetings!

 

  Tomorrow begins Blind Equality Achievement Month (beam) and we will be
kicking off the month with a state-wide walk on Saturday!  Below are the
different groups that plan to get together.  As previously announced this
walk is just to raise awareness, not funds.  The following are some of the
groups that are planning to walk together, but everyone is invited to walk
with one of these groups or on your own.  We just want members to get out in
their community and spread awareness about blindness during Blind equality
Achievement Month!

 

Below each of the listed locations is a contact number for that group.
Please contact that person for additional information about each walk.
