Hello all,<br>
A quick bit about myself; my name is Darian Smith, I am a recent
AmeriCorps Graduate via the National Civilian community corps. I
attended national convention in Detroit this year where I spoke about my
experiences as a blind person in the program.<br>
<br>
Why I’m writing: Upon speaking to some individuals who shared my
passion about community service, I discovered some interest in a
list-serve that would allow for other Federationists to share
their passion for community service and ideas for
strengthening their divisions and chapters. If there is
enough interest, maybe a formation of a national community service group
that would evolve into a national community service division could
eventually take place.<br>
If anybody is interested in the list-serve, please contact me
off-list at
<a href="mailto:dsmithnfb@gmail.com">dsmithnfb@gmail.com</a>.
Please note that the more interest in this list serve, the more likely
this list serve will be created.<br>
I look forward to hearing from all of you and eventually
hearing lots of great discussion and wonderful ideas should this all
leave the ground.<br>
Thank you,<br>
