I found this while cleaning up.  We could make items like hats for the needy or those abroad.

Happy thanks giving!

Subject: [nfb-talk] National Community Service List???


Hello all,
  A quick bit about myself; my name is Darian Smith, I am a recent AmeriCorps Graduate via the National Civilian community corps.  I attended national convention in Detroit this year where I spoke about my experiences as a blind person in the program.

  Why I'm writing: Upon speaking to some individuals who shared my passion about community service, I discovered some interest in a 
list-serve that would allow   for other 
Federationists to share their passion for 
community service and ideas   for strengthening 
their divisions and chapters.   If there is 
enough interest, maybe a formation of a national community service group that would evolve into a national community service division could eventually take place.
   If anybody is interested in the list-serve, please contact me off-list at <mailto:dsmithnfb at gmail.com>dsmithnfb at gmail.com. 
Please note that the more interest in this list serve, the more likely this list serve will be created.
    I look forward to hearing from all of you and eventually hearing lots of great discussion and wonderful ideas should this all leave the ground.
   Thank you,
   Darian Smith
National Federation of the Blind, California -San Francisco Chapter member
