Hello east valley chapter,
Here are some events that might be of interest to some of you.
Ammar
Ammar Tarin
1st vice president
National Federation Of The Blind of Arizona East Valley chapter
480-580-7874
Ammar.tarin at gmail.com
The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
