“My wife and I have seven grandchildren and one great-grandchild. They help to round out what has been an absolutely wonderful life for me. I feel fortunate that blindness did not stop me from living…Dreams can drive us, and acting on those dreams really can get us where we want to go. Let’s go there together and bring with us everybody we can.” – Adelmo Vigil, NFB of New Mexico 

 

This Sunday is Grandparents Day and it is an opportunity to engage with other generations, recognize blind people who have raised strong families, and “do something grand.” We hope you’ll join us in celebrating the grandparents that are part of the Federation family. 

 

To celebrate Grandparents Day, you can:

1.	Learn more about this year’s theme <https://grandparentsday.org/takeaction/week-at-a-glance/>  and participate in an intergenerational activity.
2.	Give a gift in honor <https://nfb.org/donate>  of a grandparent in your life.
3.	Leave a legacy gift <https://nfb.org/get-involved/ways-give/planned-giving>  to transform dreams into reality for future generations.
4.	Share information about the NFB Seniors Division <http://seniors.nfb.org/> . 

 

The National Federation of the Blind knows that grandparents often play a pivotal role in the vitality of their families, and blind seniors are capable and important contributors to our community. Please join us in honoring them on Grandparents Day and every day!

 

You can donate at www.nfb.org/donate <http://www.nfb.org/donate> . Thank you!
