Thanks all for the great welcome. I already know about both the World
 blind union and the European blind union. I met dr. Colin Low
 personally at a Balkan conference a couple of years ago that gathered
 national organizations of the blind in the region and we specifically
 talked about issues such as education, employment and other such
 things. On the other hand, the world blind union is not a union that
 us ordinary people can get close to, because it comprises of different
 organizations of the blind, similar  to the European union. The NFB
 itself has most branches in the US, but it also has some in the UK and
 India and even though I am so far from the US, there are options on
 the NFB site under the member link that also allow us blind people
 from other countries to become members at large. I never knew about
 this until someone told me and I truly love your organization and feel
 as if I am a part of it, so that is one reason why I wanted to join
 and be of help to others in every way possible. I hope you can help me
 do that.
