[Nfb-krafters-korner] Fund raising

People:
 
We need to keep fundraising in our thoughts a lot more now.  We slid  
through 5 years of this division without much expenses for the division.   We did 
in the last couple of years give some funds to National Federation of the  
Blind and last year we helped a couple of our members get to National  
Convention.
 
Now we are facing a reality that to keep the crafting classes going the way 
 they have been going in the past it will be an expense to do it.  We all  
love the classes that have been developed and shared by all of us and we 
worked  hard to build up these classes and have you and me teaching them for 
free.   We are working on something right now that will be announced in 
February our  plans, but this is only a piece of what we need to do.  We need to 
continue  thinking ahead and planning on how to keep expenses down, but we 
all have loved  enjoying the classes here.
 
We will have a better idea in the Fall what type of annual expenses we will 
 have and we need to prepare for it.
 
So keep those ideas coming and do not hesitate to share them.
