[Ohio-Talk] Meet the blind month project

[Barbara Pierce]

This may come as a shock, but I have all the time in the world. I have church Sunday morning and a couple of things Sunday afternoon, but Saturday is open if that works for you.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise expectations for blind people because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and their dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
