Newsline for the Blind is a program that allows persons who are blind to listen to a variety of newspapers and publications using their phone. The reading is done by approximately 80 trained volunteers. This statewide service is available free of charge, 365 days a year. Newsline averages more than 10,000 calls per month.
The volunteer readers devote many hours of their time to Newsline each year, so to thank them for their commitment and dedication, we would like to provide a free banquet ticket to every volunteer who wishes to join us for the banquet on Saturday, October 24. To provide the free tickets, we are asking for your help. If it is within your ability to do so, we ask that you please consider purchasing one or more banquet tickets for Newsline volunteers to show our gratitude for all they have done to help the blind community.
