Hi Mr. Davis,

It was great talking with you this morning. Below you will find a message that can be sent out to your list serve. Thanks again!

"Hello Fellow Federationists,

My name is Katy Olsen and I am serving as the coordinator of the NABS Mentorship Program for our 2018 NFB National Convention. The goal of this program is to pair both young and new students with a mentor who has been to convention before and who is a good match for the students' interests and/or vocational goals. We are looking for mentors who are passionate about having a positive influence on the lives of our young, future leaders and who would be eager to help students find their place in our organization. We are encouraging mentors of all ages and backgrounds to get involved. If you are interested, please follow the link to the application below.

All the best,

Katy Olsen
