Motivational speaker and Founder of Living Full Out, Nancy Solari, will be the featured speaker at the upcoming June 27, 2009 Los Angeles Chapter meeting for Foundation Fighting Blindness (FFB). The meeting will take place at the Palms – Rancho Park Library from 12:30 to 2:30 PM and, in addition to Nancy’s speech, the agenda of the day will discuss the upcoming Los Angeles VisionWalk.
Nancy Solari has donated her time and services to the Foundation and has a personal connection with its mission. When she was sixteen years old, Nancy was diagnosed with Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP), a degenerative eye condition that eventually left her legally blind. Her company, Living Full Out, is dedicated to showing others with visual-impairments that a full and extraordinary life can still be achieved, regardless of visual limitations. Nancy’s mission since her company’s inception has been to assist those with visual disabilities to regain a vision for their life and move beyond their challenges so that they can live life full out.
Her topic for the members of the Los Angeles FFB Chapter will focus on visualizing their true potential and taking back their lives.
