[NFBF-L] Jacksonville's Meet the Blind Month event tonight

[DENISE VALKEMA]

Hello Fellow Federationist!
>  
> So many wonderful events have taken place this month throughout the state of Florida in celebration of “White Cane Awareness Day”, “Meet the Blind Month” and “Disability Employment Awareness Month”, (to name just a few). Seeing all the posts come across my email inbox from all of our chapters raised my level of excitement for the event being held by The Greater Jacksonville Chapter on Wednesday, October 21st at 6:30 p.m. Our virtual celebration was originally viewed as a Zoom gathering mostly comprised of local folks from the Northeast Florida area, but the more our Chapter members discussed the purpose and focus of the event, the more we wanted to invite our  friends and family from all over to join us.
>  
> We wanted the name of the Zoom event to capture the essence energy and excitement  of our discussion forum  and so decided to title it, “We Make a Difference, You Can Too”!
>  
> We are truly appreciative for all of those in the sighted community who make a positive impact in the lives of blind individuals, but know without a doubt that we, the blind,  make a tremendous difference in the lives of those around us every day. We hope very much that the messages delivered at the gathering on October 21st will serve as inspiration to all of those in attendance.

> The flyer for the event is attached to this email. The Zoom meeting information is listed below.
> Looking forward to seeing you all on Wednesday, please feel free to spread the word about our Meet the Blind Month activity.
