[NABS-L] Bidding Battle Royale

[Jordy D. Stringer]

Hey there, hope you had a good convention week. I’ve been on a number of auction items and was the winner, and when trying to pay the invoice I didn’t see a place to enter credit card information. I clicked how do I pay, and it suggests that the organizer will reach out to me directly. Just wanted to let you know that I got that message. Will look forward to hearing from you soon.

>> I’m here to give you the latest standings on the Michigan affiliate’s wonderful fundraiser, “Summer of Tech.” Today is the final day to bid and participate in claiming one of our hot tech items. At 9pm this evening, 15 different items will belong to some people that had the love, hope, and determination to make sure the NFB of Michigan can continue to fund some programs and initiatives that improves the lives of the blind. Right now, the auction has raised over $1900, which is about 76% of our funding goal. I am sure we can reach the $2500 threshold with all of your help. Don’t forget the share and feel free to participate, you just may luck up and win. Remember, all participants and winners will get a free hug from Robert and a wonderful chicken dinner using the Air Fryer from the auction (I want that one!).
