the cancellation of our 2023 National Community Service Project with the Ronald
McDonald Charity House of Houston, Texas.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:0.5in;line-height:11.75pt;margin:0in 0in 8pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">As of Monday, May 8, 2023, our
division has been informed by national representatives that raising any type of
funds and/or the collection of any donation under the federation name must
remain within the blind community. To protect and maintain the confidentiality
of the residence of the Ronald McDonald Charity House, we cannot confirm if the
majority of the individuals identify as being blind. Therefore, we will not be
serving the residence of this facility, and we are no longer collecting care
package items for this particular project.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:0.5in;line-height:11.75pt;margin:0in 0in 8pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">If you have already sent donations,
please contact our division president, Jeanetta Price, as soon as possible. Any
other questions regarding the cancellation of our 2023 National Community
Service Project, please contact one of the Community Service Division
board members off list.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:0.5in;line-height:11.75pt;margin:0in 0in 8pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">We value each and every one of our
members and supporters, and are just as heart broken by the newly released
information. However, we have all been bonded together by the heart of service.
We will continue to go Beyond The Six Dots, and we'll forever serve in love and
with passion!!</p>
