At the convention, those who attended our cash and caring network meeting said we need this list to communicate. So let's hear about your best fundraisers. We want to know briefly what you did, how much net profit you made; what you will improve next time. We are also open to questions. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>We want to help chapters and states build bigger and better fundraising activities.

But let's stay with the subject of responsible fundraising. Our chapters need funds; Our state affiliates need more; and the NFB treasury needs the most. Chapters should feel very good about raising funds they can share with states and national. Of course, the more you raise, the more you can share. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Bob Sellers of Washington and Parmie Similton of Alabama and I will try to follow this list.
