[Nfbf-l] Yellow Cab Partners with National Association of Guide Dog Users to Raise Awareness

[Marion Gwizdala]

Dear All,

 

                I am very excited to share with you that Yellow Cab of
Tampa, one of Florida's largest taxicab companies, has partnered with the
National Association of Guide Dog Users to raise awareness of the rights and
responsibilities of disabled individuals who use service animals. Yellow Cab
of Tampa has begun installing NAGDU's "Service Animals Welcome" decals on
all of their fleet of 180 vehicles. These 4 X 5 decals feature the logo of
the National Federation of the Blind along with the website of the National
Association of Guide Dog Users and the toll-free number to the NAGDU
Information & Advocacy Hotline

 

                NAGDU's "Service Animals Welcome" decals are provided to
companies free of charge; however, because they are not reading material and
are generally not sent to an organization qualifying for free matter for the
blind priveleges, there is a small postage fee collected upon ordering. If
you know of a company wishing to display these decals, prior order
authorization is required. To receive your authorization, please send an
email message with the number of decals desired and the shipping address to

                If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to write,
as well. We look forward to partnering with more companies to raise
awareness and expectations of the blind!

 

Fraternally yours,

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise
expectations because low expectations create barriers between blind  people
and our dreams. You can live the life you want! Blindness is not what holds
you back.
