[Bruce&Joy Breslauer]

The 2017 Dr. Jacob Bolotin Award Program

APPLICATIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED STARTING NOVEMBER 15, 2016!

 

The National Federation of the Blind is pleased to announce that applications
will be accepted from November 15, 2016 through April 15, 2017, for the Dr.

Jacob Bolotin Awards Program. The awards will be presented at the annual
convention of the National Federation of the Blind in Orlando, Florida,
during

the second week of July. These awards recognize individuals and organizations
working in the field of blindness that have demonstrated exemplary leadership

and extraordinary accomplishments toward achieving the full integration of
the blind into society on a basis of equality. Named for a pioneering blind

physician who practiced in the early twentieth century, the Dr. Jacob Bolotin
awards are made possible through the generosity of his late nephew and niece.

Their bequest, the Alfred and Rosalind Perlman Trust, allows the National
Federation of the Blind to provide direct financial support to people and
organizations

that are improving the lives of the blind throughout the United States.
Please visit the Application Information and Materials page to submit a
nomination or submit a letter of recommendation.

Live the life you want 

 

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back.
