Greetings Friends and Family:

As you are undoubtedly aware, today is October 11, 2017, and I send you well wishes on National Sausage Pizza Day and hope that you celebrate it accordingly.

October 11th also means that it is a mere 18 days until we draw the prizes for this year's Amazing Colorado Raffle brought to you by the National Federation of the Blind of Colorado.  Like last year, one lucky person will win $2500, another $1000, and yet another $500.  All you need to do is purchase tickets and throw your hat in the running.  Tickets cost only $10 for one or get three for $20 or whatever multiple thereof you like.  For example, $100 will get you 15 tickets in the raffle.

How do you participate?

Well, it's easy.  Please go to the following address and follow the instructions:
www.nfbco.org/amazing-colorado-raffle<http://www.nfbco.org/amazing-colorado-raffle>

Why is this important?

I have been a member of the National Federation of the Blind since 1986 when I was fortunate enough to win a national scholarship from the Federation.  That assistance and the thirty years of support from the organization have allowed me to live the life I want and become a successful attorney, husband, and father.  Without the Federation's positive philosophy and countless positive role models, I would not have the life that I want.

How do the funds from this contest help the Federation specifically?

Well, we use these funds to operate our college scholarship program, provide Braille Literacy training through our BELL Academies, and issue empowerment grants to blind individuals.  Other than the cash prizes, 100 percent of the funds raised go to these programs.

Do I have to be present to win?

Absolutely not!  We will draw the three names Saturday evening, October 29th, at approximately 8:00 pm Mountain as part of our Annual Convention taking place at the Denver Marriott South which is actually located in Lone Tree, Colorado.

I thank you in advance for participating in this year's raffle and wish you luck.  If you need any help in purchasing tickets, please do not hesitate to email me, slabarre at labarrelaw.com<mailto:slabarre at labarrelaw.com>, or call us at 303 504-5979.

Good luck and enjoy your slice of pizza, with or without sausage!

Warmly,
Scott LaBarre
President, NFB of Colorado
