Hi, all! Please read the below announcement and share far + wide! 

Open-House Gatherings:
Many people do not know the National Federation of the Blind, and they are
reluctant to attend a local chapter meeting where they may have their
questions answered. We will be hosting teleconferences for individuals that
are curious about the National Federation of the Blind. The teleconference
will present them with an opportunity to receive information from and ask
questions of Federationists. We will be able to dispel the myths and
misconceptions about the NFB and highlight the benefits of membership. These
calls are specifically intended for individuals who are curious about our
organization and would benefit from learning about us in an educational
environment. Chapters and affiliates should share this invitation on their
social media and disseminate it with anyone who may be interested in
joining.  
 
The calls will take place on the third Sunday of each even numbered month
and the third Wednesday of each odd numbered month. Our first two calls will
be Sunday, August 18, at 4:00 p.m. eastern and Wednesday, September 18, at
8:00 p.m. eastern. We would like to keep the list of participants small
enough so that it will be impactful. Therefore, in order to participate,
individuals will need to RSVP by emailing membership at nfb.org or calling
410-659-9314, extension 2509, and let us know which call date works best for
them. Individuals selected to participate will receive the call-in
information.

Cheers,
