[CT-NFB] Donated items to distribute

[Maryanne Melley]

Seeing as these items are with Mary Silverberg who is also blind, I will ask her if she is able to get to a post office and try to mail the digital magnifier as free matter for the blind. I will send her the code to bring with her to the post office in case they give her a difficult time. If they refuse to help her then the affiliate will pay to have it shipped. Please send me on a private email the address and name of the person who is in need of the magnifier.

Thank you,

Maryanne Melley

The code actually does classify this  type of equipment as appropriate in order to take advantage of the program. We have had LOC digital players sent to us this way, as well as items from BESB. The postal code is available online. Hope this helps. The item must not be sealed when present it to the post office or pick up carrier, as they must confirm that it is indeed blind-related. Then, it is sealed in the presence of the postal official.
