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

Richard here is the draft below. I have one question under Vehicle donation coordinator, do you want me to change this to Committee instead of coordinator?

Good Afternoon NFB of Ohio,

I am pleased to present the 2019 committee Descriptions for appointments attached and below for your review.

I will be glad to answer questions if they are needed. Please call or email me off list; as communication will “not” be done on Ohio-Talk. Please let me know which committees you would like to serve on by December 1st. In addition, if you want to chair a committee, let me know that as well. I will take that highly under consideration. 

Annually, Committees are reappointed, and members are reassigned with the discretion of the President. This is done at the National level and Ohio follows that alinement. Therefore, impartiality has preference when appointing individuals to chair and serve. If you believe you should chair a committee let me know in detail and why. Do not assume anything. Right now, this list is blank.
