To further add to Jeannie's good thoughts... the committee might offer some
annual reward to affiliates or chapters for innovative fundraising ideas &
events. The idea of a fundraising chair for every affiliate is great. those
could be the core of people with access to the Wiki. Also, for a little
while we were putting together the NFB in the Community Newsletter-this was
m1nt to be a regular communication around outreach & fundraising. This
committee & someone from our NFBJI outreach team could work together to make
this another product of the committee.
