<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Back to the Future IV: From being a small group of blind people in Spartanburg in 1944 to becoming the largest statewide organization of blind people by the year 2000, the National
 Federation of the Blind of South Carolina has grown to become a strong and diverse organization in both its people and programs. Have we accomplished all we set out to do? I should say not. We are standing on the shoulders of our past founders and leaders,
 but as time goes on, chapters and divisions need revitalizing and growth.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">What new legislation will be needed? Agencies serving the blind will need our perspective and encouragement to expand new ways to train and place the blind in the job market,
 etc. Are we looking ahead to build the Federation in such a way that people, both blind and sighted, civic and corporate, governmental and private will seek us out for advice and support? You bet! We can get there by working together to set goals and work
 hard to reach them while reaching out statewide, demonstrating that blindness is not what holds you back. High expectations result in success and that draws the attention of the blind and sighted alike.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
