A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT
I know of nothing more powerful in life than when a group of people come
together for a common purpose. We enhance that power when the individuals
are volunteers-when they are driven by purpose and action rather than
compensation...

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines blind people or their future. Every day we raise
the expectations of and for blind people, because low expectations create
obstacles between blind people and our dreams. We can live the lives we
want; blindness is not what holds us back. Please join us in our work by
becoming a member, attending an event, sharing this newsletter or supporting
our programs.
