My good friend Mrs. greenlaw who is the 2nd Vice President of the Arizona State affiliate and President of the Phoenix chapter delivered a powerful speech on invoking change. We started out as a chapter with changing the mindset of the blind in Georgia and now that the change has come we have moved into an area of prosperity and freedom from the mind being stuck on tradition and customary ways of doing things. I am proud of her and the accomplishments that she’s made and when you listen you will see that she is not afraid of change because it’s what is needed to become the individuals that the world will see very shortly. After listening add your comments below and remember change will come, but it’s only you that can make the change happen.

“The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight. The real problem is the misunderstanding and lack of information that exist. If a blind person has proper training and opportunity, blindness can be reduced to a physical nuisance.” (www.nfb.org).

Members,
It brought me great joy to see all of you in attendance at the January’s Chapter meeting. Didn’t Mr. Kokayi get down with his presentation on how to compete and win?
In CCECNFB tradition we need to give it up for our newest chapter members. A warm welcome to Mr. Lafayette Woods and Elsie Watson from Philadelphia. If you have not paid your 2010 membership dues, please submit them as soon as possible. I must say that the bank account is looking pretty good and we have started ahead of the game to have enough money for our 2010 programming. Thanks for you and your hard work.
