Yesterday RantWoman briefly attended an event for a great cause, the Dreamfly foundation
http://www.thedreamfly.org/
Dreamfly mobilizes funds in the US and partners with local nonprofits to build and operate schools in Pakistan and now Afghanistan. RantWoman was utterly charmed by the effort and the people.
RantWoman was slightly not charmed by two points:
First, RantWoman saw a sign about the event at her house of worship. The sign was nearly all tiny print, not a darn thing RantWoman can read. RantWoman only knew about the event because someone announced it. Then someone else who had heard the announcement was asking RantWoman and we both found the barely readable sign.
On a similar note, the event was nicely done with questions to help everyone mingle and get acquainted. RantWoman found herself grumbling though: if one is going to use a whole sheet of paper with one's mingle questions, it would not be terrible to print the questions in, say, 14-point font.
It's not like curious legally blind visitors are necessarily vast pools of funds ourselves, but sometimes we do have friends who are!
