[MN-at-Large] Worthy Community Service Project at Convention

[Steve Jacobson via NFBMN-News]

We have been asked to distribute the information below about a 
Community Service Project that will be taking place at our national 
convention in New Orleans.  I am sending this a bit late, but there 
would still be time for people not attending the convention to 
participate as well.  Here is the information that I have received:







The National Federation of the Blind Community ServiceDivision will 
participate in a service project on Wednesday, July 6, 2022.  We are 
partnering with Covenant House New Orleans located at 611 North 
Rampart Street, New Orleans, Louisiana, 70112.  Covenant House serves 
young people overcoming homelessness.  Every year it opens its heart 
and doors to more than 900 youth and children ages 22 and under.  Our 
division's goal is to fill 100 Boxes of Love with these items.  The 
items we need to collect are as follows:



o wet wipes

o feminine products

o mouthwash

o lotion

o bath towels

o hand sanitizer

o razors

o deodorant (all types)

o shampoo and conditioner

o natural hair products

o body wash (bars or bottle)

o toothpaste and toothbrushes



These brand new products can be full-sized.  Also, if you plan to 
mail your products to our division president, they will need to be 
mailed by Friday, June 24, 2022.  If you have questions, please 
contact Jeanetta Price at 409-344-1005.  For those of you who are 
bringing products to the national convention, you will need to bring 
them to the lobby of the Marriott on Wednesday, July 5, 2022, from 
3:00 PM-5:00 PM.  Lyn will be there to collect them.  If you need to 
contact her, She can be reached at 513-884-2132.  Thanks for what you 
will do to give back, and please share this information with someone else.
