[Ohio-Talk] Celebration announcement from the National Association of Blind Students

[Richard Payne]

Dear Affiliate and Student Presidents,

I hope you all are looking forward to the long weekend ahead! It is
difficult to believe summer is upon us and convention is right around the
corner!

As we quickly approach June, our NFB students are coming to the end of a
school year like none other. We need your help in spreading the word about
our NABS Graduation, happening next Sunday June 6 at 7:00 PM eastern, to
celebrate those members coming to the end of a chapter in their education.
Please share this message far and wide and don't hesitate to reach out with
any questions.

Federationally Yours,
Trisha Kulkarni
President | National Association of Blind Students
A Proud Division of the National Federation of the Blind

Dear Students,

As we reach the end of May, congratulations are in order for all of our NABS
members for the incredible determination you put forward during this crazy,
unexpected year! We in NABS know that the road of virtual learning has not
always been easy, but we hope that you take the time to appreciate the many
steps forward you have made in your academic journey and beyond.

For some among us, this spring marks an extra special milestone that we want
to celebrate, graduation! Last year, we had a NABS Graduation due to many
ceremonies being canceled or moved online, and it was a wonderful experience
to commemorate our accomplishments as a community. We are thrilled to
announce that we will be carrying on the tradition on June 6 at 7:00 PM EST.

For our graduates, make sure you fill out this form by June 5 to be
recognized during the call:

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.
