[Md-sligo] Canes for Sierra Leone

[Brown, Debbie]

I can certainly supply 10 canes as well.  Unless you have ideas in mind of specifically who they are fore, I would get various sizes.  I would pick adult sizes unless you asked for children's.  Let us know what you want and how many you can carry.  If it is a lot, we would let more people know about it.

For more expensive items, we would need some organization and a specific fundraiser, and I would rather give it to a school or training center, because we couldn't afford more than one.

Hi Debbie,
I wish I could join you guys at the convention in July.  I may be in the U.S. about that time but I don't know exactly when and where.  If possible, I will try to make a brief stop over at the convention.

Meanwhile, I am still interested in getting some donated white canes for my folks over here.  I will ask my cousin to get in touch with you on that.  If you don't mind, I will give him your phone number to contact you.
I should also be very grateful if you could explore the possibility of getting donated secondhand BrailleNotes or any similar devices.
Greetings to all at Sligo Creek.
Fred.

Just to let you know that if you go to the convention, this hotel has refrigerators in all the rooms.  You can take your medicine--or buy groceries.

Debbie
