Subject: Need your help finding  mentors for National Convention! 

Dear Dwight,   
This year at the  2010 National Convention, we are setting up a mentoring 
program for winners of  the Kenneth Jernigan Scholarship Convention Awards 
given to first time  convention attendees. I am looking for mentors who can 
help work with these  winners. These mentors should be members who have 
attended a National  Convention, who could give good advice, and who could build 
relationships with  new attendees.  
We will be meeting  with the winners in the Affiliate Action Suite from 
7:30 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. on  Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday of the 
Convention. On Monday, we will  be meeting from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. in the 
Affiliate Action Suite. These are the  times we will need the mentors to be 
available to work with the winners. Do  you have anyone in your division who needs 
a job? Please let me know if you  have any volunteers from the National 
Association of Blind  Veterans that can help during any or all of these times.  
Your division may want to take just one of these times and supply three to 
10  mentors for that day. I appreciate everything you do; thanks for helping 
with  one more thing!  
Best,
