Hello Bay Area Blind Community!

Save the Date for Friendsgiving!
Saturday, November 22, 2025

East Bay Center for the Blind
2928 Adeline Street, Berkeley, CA 94703

Time: 1:00 PM (official time to be determined by the committee)

We’re excited to bring our community together for something special! Our
advocacy groups—the National Federation of the Blind San Francisco Chapter
(NFBSF) and the California Council of the Blind San Francisco Chapter
(CCB)—are partnering with the East Bay Center for the Blind to host our
very first Friendsgiving celebration. This is a wonderful opportunity to
unite the Bay Area Blind Community, celebrate the advocacy work we do, and
enjoy a warm gathering with friends old and new. All Bay Area Blind
Community members are warmly invited!

Want to help make it happen?
We’re inviting you to join the Friendsgiving Planning Committee! Our first
meeting is tonight – I know it’s last minute for some, but we’d love to
have you join us if you can!

You do not have to be a member of any of these affiliate groups to join the
planning committee. This is a community event and the more the merrier!

Our soft launch is tonight, and we will have a more formal meeting and
launch next week when more people can join us, but there’s lots we can get
started on!
We have seven Mondays between now and Friendsgiving, so there’s plenty of
time to plan something special! The committee can decide together if weekly
meetings work best for everyone.

We’re looking for volunteers to help with:
• Outreach to our community
• Determining the menu and coordinating food
• Organizing decorations and ambiance
• Planning fun activities and entertainment
• Coordinating volunteers for the day of the event
• Managing RSVPs and guest communication
• Soliciting donations and fundraising
• Creating promotional materials
• And so much more!

Whether you can commit to the whole planning process or just want to help
with specific tasks, we’d love to have you involved.

Join us tonight:
Laura is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Dear Laura:

I’m so sorry I’ve been out of the loop for so long. However, my priority has been working with the Israeli Palestine peace movement, given that I am a citizen of both United States and Israel and Israel has been doing horrible things during the pasttwo years and longer. Anyway, I would like to know When the event is supposed to occur, and what you have in mind for such an event, it really does sound wonderful!
Thanks so much!

All the best,

Daveed

Hello San Francisco Chapter Members and Friends,


Join us for an unforgettable October social! We’re swapping our usual lunch
for an evening of dinner in the Mission (location to be confirmed) followed
by the hilarious Your Fucked Up Relationship improv comedy show at Endgames
Improv Theater, where your wild breakup stories spark the laughter.

------------------------------

Why Attend?


Since 2011, Your Fucked Up Relationship has been San Francisco’s premier
improv show, transforming your outrageous relationship tales into
side-splitting, fully improvised scenes. Share a story if you’d like
(volunteers are only asked at the ticket booth—no pressure) or just enjoy
the chaos.


Endgames typically offers a couple of headsets for audio description, but
on October 18th, they’re debuting live audio description, working closely
with performers to integrate it seamlessly. The theater has been incredibly
accommodating, and I’m thrilled to see what they’ve put together—so come
prepared with your stories and energy!

Saturday, October 18th - NFB San Francisco Chapter Social

Celebrating Blind Equality Achievement Month!


October is Blind Equality Achievement Month - a time to celebrate the
achievements of blind people and raise awareness about blindness. And
awareness is sometimes raised simply by showing up! Simply by living your
life! Simply by having a good time in community with other blind and low
vision friends.


As the National Federation of the Blind says: "Blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. You can live the life you
want." Members of our chapter work hard all year advocating, educating, and
doing the work of the Federation. Now it's time to have some fun!


We're heading out for dinner and improv comedy, and the theme for the night
is... Your Fucked Up Relationship! You heard that right - come volunteer
your wild breakup stories at the door and watch them turn into comedy gold
on stage!


ABOUT THE SHOW:

Endgames Improv Theater offers headsets for audio description, which we
really appreciate. But we wanted to experience this show together as a
community, so we asked if they'd do live audio description for our group
and they said yes! Expect your cringe-worthy ex stories to transform into
hilarious, over-the-top scenes - maybe your bad date becomes a soap opera,
or your ghosting saga turns into a sci-fi epic! Their troop has been
working hard and having fun to make this happen. Let's show up big to
support a theater that's making comedy inclusive and unforgettable for our
community.


WHY YOU SHOULD COME:

   - Laugh together at outrageous relationship stories turned into improv
   scenes
   - Experience theater as a community, not through individual headsets
   - Enjoy great food and conversation before the show
   - Celebrate all our hard work with a well-deserved fun night out
   - Support a theater that's making their shows accessible
   - Maybe share your own wild breakup story and see it performed live (we
   promise to cheer you on!)
   - Meet new friends and hang out with familiar faces in a relaxed,
   no-pressure setting


THE DETAILS:

DINNER - 7:00 PM

Rosamunde Sausage Grill
2832 Mission St, San Francisco, CA 94110


Just show up! No reservation needed. Plenty of room for groups with both
inside and outside seating. We're only two blocks from the theater, so it's
an easy stroll after dinner.


SHOW - 9:00 PM

Your Fucked Up Relationship at Endgames Improv Theater
2965 Mission St, San Francisco, CA 94110


Show runs about an hour. Beer, wine, cocktails, and snacks available.


TICKETS:

Group rate ($15): Send $15 via Venmo to Laura-Millar-2 at
https://venmo.com/u/Laura-Millar-2 and let me know you're coming!


Want to support the chapter? Feel free to donate above the $15 ticket price
- any extra will go directly to supporting NFB San Francisco Chapter
activities!


Individual tickets ($20+):
https://www.eventbrite.com/e/your-fucked-up-relationship-tickets-30817013517

Shows sell out fast - let me know sooner rather than later if you're coming!


WHO'S INVITED:

Everyone! NFB San Francisco Chapter members, friends, family, and all
members of the blind community. First time joining us? This is the perfect
event to jump in - casual, fun, and all about community. Whether you're a
regular or a first-timer, we want YOU there. Bring whoever you'd like!


Note: Content is PG-13 to R-rated. Under 17 needs a parent or guardian.
Arrive on time - seats may be released 10 minutes after showtime.


This is your chapter, your community, and your invitation to come celebrate
Blind Equality Achievement Month with us. Grab your ticket, bring your best
breakup story (or just your appetite for laughs), and let's make Saturday a
night where the blind community steals the show. See you there - improv
style, anything could happen!


Questions or RSVP? Email nfbsf.community at gmail.com or reach out to Laura
Millar.

Hey, all :( I sent this to the wrong NFB list. Didn't have the SF list 
in my phone's addressbook. Will rectify. :)

There won't be tabling, due to lack of tablers signing up, but we hope 
many folks will attend from the community, and from the 
service/government side of things.

Hey, all,

I know this is really short notice, but I've been a part of this thing 
since it started. This will be a feedback forum that will give the 
Alameda County access and functional needs committee a good idea of what 
needs improving regarding people with disabilities in disasters in 
Alameda County. Are we getting what we need, do we know how things will 
work, etc. I'm embarrassed at the run-on sentence, but I'm tired. 
Chuckle I just want this to get out, because there isn't much time 
before the event.

This message should be readable, but there are two different links in 
it. One is for attendees, and that one goes to brown paper tickets.com. 
this event is free, but I knew that  website was accessible, so we used it.

The other link is for those who wish to table at the event. If the East 
Bay center for the blind wants to come, smile, they're welcome, as is 
the lighthouse. I hope folks will come and be a part of this important 
process.

Sheela
