>PANCAKE BREAKFAST BENEFITS THE BLIND
>	On Saturday, July 26 - the 24th anniversary of the Americans with
>Disabilities Act (ADA),, Beef O'Brady's will host a pancake breakfast
>to benefit the Tampa Bay Chapter of the National Federation of the
>Blind of Florida (NFBF). The breakfast will be held from 8:00 - 10:00
>a.m. at the Beef OBrady's located at 8810 N. Himes Ave. and will
>include two eggs, pancakes, bacon, and coffee, tea, or orange juice
>for only $7.00 per plate. In addition to breakfast, guests will also
>have the chance to win door prizes and participate in a 50/50 drawing.
>Blind chapter members will be on hand to demonstrate reading & writing
>Braille, including having their names written in the tactile code,
>share how blind people use the long white cane, and how a blind person
>uses a guide dog. Advance reservations are required and can be made by
>sending an email with the number in your party to
>
>MBKilby at gmail.com
>
>"Every day we raise the expectations of blind people," says Miranda
>Kilby, who serves as the Tampa Bay chapter president, "because low
>expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams."
>
>	The National Federation of the Blind is the oldest and largest
>organization of the blind in the United States. The NFB believes that
>the real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight, but low
>expectations of the blind that create obstacles to achieving their
>highest potential. The Federation provides scholarships to blind
>students; support for those who are blind or losing their eyesight;
>advocacy for the blind facing discrimination; and informational
>programs for the general public on topics of blindness. The NFB is not
>an organization that speaks on behalf of the blind; they are the blind
>speaking for themselves.
