<DIV><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2>The National Federation of the Blind's
Columbia chapter has worked out a deal with our local Barnes & Noble store
to do a book fair, so that any purchases made between now and the end of
business on Tuesday will initiate a donation to the Missouri school for the
blind. There is no extra charge to the purchaser of a Barnes & Noble
item, but simply a donation which will come for presentation by our Columbia
chapter to the school. The promotional code is<SPAN
class=368321103-02122010> 10373199, and if you make an order online or if you
happen to visit the store tomorrow between 10 AM and 8 PM, this code will
initiate a donation.<BR><BR>Tomorrow we will be in the store from 9:30 AM until
8 PM distributing NFB literature and writing names in braille. Between one
and four in the afternoon, we will be doing story time for the
children.</SPAN></FONT></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2><SPAN class=368321103-02122010>We have found
the people at Barnes & Noble to be excited and enthusiastic about this
project, and throughout the day they will be making overhead announcements about
our organization, our programs, and where we can be found in the store.
Although this program only allows for donations to schools, we believe it is a
wonderful opportunity to make a contribution to a worthy cause and to help us
build a stronger relationship with our school for the blind. The school is
very excited about our efforts and was very surprised that our organization
would work to directly support some of the schools
activities.</SPAN></FONT></FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
