PRESIDENT'S LETTER

  <https://www.nfb.org/sites/www.nfb.org/files/civicrm/persist/contribute/images/mar-w-eq-kids.jpg> 

“When I was young, I wanted to be an architect but I had no idea how a blind person would manage the work."  <https://www.nfb.org/libraries/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=15068&qid=2881884> President Riccobono shares the power of the National Federation of the Blind.

NFB Leads in the STEM Arena

Many blind students have been discouraged from pursuing STEM. However, NFB started the STEM revolution over a decade ago to change that.  <https://www.nfb.org/libraries/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=15069&qid=2881884> Our innovation and leadership in STEM continues.

STEM Programs Impact More than STEM

Many times our STEM programs impact the entire family, like Clarence from California who is empowered to live the life he wants.  <https://www.nfb.org/libraries/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=15070&qid=2881884> Clarence and his family learned about STEM and more.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines blind people or their future. Every day we raise the expectations of and for blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. We can live the lives we want; blindness is not what holds us back. Please join us in our work by becoming a member, attending an event, sharing this newsletter, or supporting our programs.
