[blindkid] Local News

[Maria Ceferatti]

This news story was wonderful. My son and I were at the Braille Challenge and we saw Kendra receive her award. 
We were there because my son's school, Saint Lucy Day School for Children with Visual Impairments (in Philadelphia), won the Cinema Without Sight Film Festival for their video "If Blind Kids Ruled the World." The Film Festival was sponsored by the Braille Institute.
Here is the link on youtube to their video:
