[IL-Talk] 2023 NFB of Illinois state convention-financial assistance

[Marilyn Green]

Greetings fellow federationists,

It is that time of year again to hear the tapping of long white canes
throughout the halls of our state convention hotel. AS I gear up for
the planning of the convention, I remember that the people are the
one's who bring the enthusiasm and energy that make the convention
memorable. The convention proper will begin at 4:00pm with our
resolutions committee but we will have an array of fun activities and
opportunities for networking all day on Friday, October13. Please plan
to be at the convention Friday, October 13-Saturday, October 14. We
will adjourn at the end of the banquet on Saturday night.

If you would like to attend the 2023 state convention or know someone
who would like to attend the convention and need financial assistance,
Chappell Dennis grants are available. Visit
www.nfbofillinois.org/convention and download and complete the
Chappell-Dennis form and submit it to president at nfbofillinois.org, no
later than 11:59pm on Friday, September 1.

 Feel free to reach out to me at president at nfbofillinois.org or
312-343-8396 if you have questions regarding the financial assistance
form or the 2023 state convention. Please remember that the form
format should not be changed and you can contact me if the person
seeking financial assistance needs help with completing the form.

I look forward to another great state convention with the members and
friends of the National Federation of the Blind of Illinois!
