[Ohio-Talk] [NFBOH-Cleveland] Congratulations to Kinshuk Tella and the other 2021 Scholarship Program Finalists

Thu May 13 22:13:21 UTC 2021

Kinshuk,

You have been impressive since day one please keep it up congratulations.

Richard Payne,  President
National Federation of the Blind of Ohio

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.
