[NFBMI-Talk] Fwd: FYI: Okemos woman racks up hundreds of miles biking for Braille education

[Robert Parsons]

Friends, 

Please take some time to check out this article for the awareness this blind Michigander is raising for braille literacy and enrichment. Kudoes to her and thanks to our NFB of Indiana president, Kane, for the update. 

 Love, 


Robert Parsons Jr.
