[Nfb-krafters-korner] Introduction from a New Member

[Jewel S.]

Joyce,

Thanks for the suggestions. Unfortuantely, North Carolina's chapter is
broke, due to a loss of the caller center they have been using for
years that brought in the majority of their funding each year. Because
of the high expense of a trip from North Carolina to Dallas, and lack
of other assistance, $600 would not be enough to help me, because I
have so many other expenses right now and very little money. It will
likely h appen next year, though, and I will certainly try for the
scholarship then.
