[Brown, Deborah A]

I think cash will work because the registration table is able to deal with cash.

Can we bring cash to the convention and if so, will the registration table take the money?

Want to win either $500 or have your 2026 State Convention hotel and meals covered? Here's your chance!


The National Federation of the Blind of Maryland is hosting the 2025 NFBMD Convention donation drive. For each $20 donation, you will get one chance in the Convention drawing. For example, if you donate $100, you will get five chances.

The winner will have their choice of either $500 or their 2026 state convention hotel (two nights) and meals covered by the affiliate. The drawing will take place at the NFBMD banquet on Saturday, February 15, 2025.   The winner does not need to be present.
The fundraiser is open through 3PM on Saturday, February 15, 2025.


The rules for the drawing are as follows:

1. For each $20 donated, the donor will receive one chance. For example, if the donor contributes $100, that equates to 5 chances.

2. The donor must expressly state that they wish to have their name placed in the convention drawing.

3. Donations must be made separately from any door prize contributions, convention registration donations, theater donation drive, or end-of-year sharing contributions.

4. Donations must be received on or before 3PM on February 15, 2025.



Individuals may make donations using the PayPal button located at https://nfbmd.org/conventiondrawing<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://nfbmd.org/conventiondrawing__;!!EDx7F7x-0XSOB8YS_BQ!f8MiHtqnMvN8zqsC-kj7MlL2iyv45dFCK17DOYudFmi2EqntEq3t_TT7JZPJZIXUbH3w2FEZ2fSjzMIv$>

The National Federation of the Blind of Maryland knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back
