National Federation of the Blind of Kansas

On a navy blue field is a sunflower, the state flower. Also, the state seal and the words "Kansas". In the picture of the state seal are thirty-four stars representing the order of statehood. Above the stars is the motto "To the Stars Through Difficulties". On the seal a sunrise overshadows a farmer plowing a field near his log cabin, a steamboat sailing the Kansas River, a wagontrain heading west and Native Americans hunting bison.

We were organized in 1969. Our mission is to change what it means to be blind. We are the Kansas state affiliate of the National Federation of the Blind, which is located in Baltimore, Maryland. Our emphasis is the education of blind people. We highly promote the use of Braille. We offer scholarships, as well as hold an annual Braille reading contest.
