I am thrilled that you will be joining us officially. There 3 ways in which you can pay your dues, the easiest and quickest is with Zelle. You can send $10 to <a href="mailto:Treasurer@nfbma.org">Treasurer@nfbma.org</a>, you could also bring a check or cash to the next chapter meeting and give it to Mika or Shirley. The third way is to go to our website nfbma.org and click on donate make sure you are donating to NFBMA and not to the NFB because it goes to the NFB, it would be considered a donation to the National office. But if you click on donate to the NFB of MA and on the note field, please write Cambridge dues This way is processed through PayPal and would require a credit card, unless you have a PayPal account and have your bank account information associated with that account. . <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>As far as the Zoom link, this is for anything else we do in the NFB of Massachusetts. This will include at-large chapter meetings, State board meetings, guide dog group meetings, Bell Academy meetings, student meetings, chapter presidents meetings and many other things that might be happening. For instance, Thursday, August 29, we will be having an exploratory meeting for what people would like to see at our next convention. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> Now, that you are on the email list, you will find out about these items and more as they approach.

This is the affiliate Zoom. This is the zoom info that will be needed for most of our meetings. The Cambridge Chapter uses a different one at this time, as does the Parents Division. For all other meetings , the following is the Zoom information, unless otherwise specified. Please keep this info handy. This is important for you and for those in your chapter who do not have access to a computer or smart phone. Those individuals will need you to give them the dial in phone number as well as the meeting ID and the passcode. For anyone clicking on this link or clicking on the one tap mobile, they will most likely not need to dial in the ID or Password. Thanks for keeping this in your easily accessible files. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Join Zoom Meeting<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="https://nfb-org.zoom.us/j/95988295663?pwd=DbPBuyBa91Sa7f3IVOcA5G916u5qtY.1">https://nfb-org.zoom.us/j/95988295663?pwd=DbPBuyBa91Sa7f3IVOcA5G916u5qtY.1</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Meeting ID: 959 8829 5663<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Passcode: 2024<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>---<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>One tap mobile<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>+16469313860,,95988295663#,,,,*2024# US<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>+13017158592,,95988295663#,,,,*2024# US (Washington DC)<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>---<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Dial by your location<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>• +1 646 931 3860 US<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Meeting ID: 959 8829 5663<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Passcode: 2024<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
