I signed up the NFB of Idaho. I would urge you to order from Schwans frozen foods and put in the Support the Blind of Idaho campaign number 23867 beginning November 1 and continuing for 45 days. Our goal for this year is 1000 dollars, and this campaign can be repeated annually. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Then I would urge you to sign up your own affiliates. Idaho is not the first to do this, and I hope we will not be the last. As soon as our campaign is finished, I would be glad to support anyother affiliate's campaign. If anybody is reading this list, I will be glad to add more info.
