[Nfbc-info] There's more than one way to grow the Federation!

Congratulations on your new arrival
God bless you and your family

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.

Our hope is that tonight is the last night since he showing some very good progress this afternoon.
