[NFB-Talk] Dealing with Checks

[Mark Tardif]

Hi, Misty,

I will be the first to admit that I hate dealing with checks as well, but 
have dealt with them for the last several years as our affiliate treasurer. 
I hate to admit this, but this is when I use sighted help, from someone who 
works in our office here whom I have trusted for years.  I make sure the 
check numbers are in my records and check with our bank often to make sure 
they have cleared.  Also, I have learned that for me, it is important, when 
I send a check, to give that person or organization receiving it a heads up 
that it is coming, and I ask them to please inform me when they have 
received it.  This way, if a check gets lost in the mail, we can deal with 
the problem quickly.  I hope this helps.

Greetings to all.

I am writing to seek advice about dealing with checks, both writing and 
reading them, as a blind person. Up until now, I have avoided any contact 
with them like the proverbial plague, but, now, my new position within my 
NFB affiliate will inevitably bring me into contact with the dreaded things! 
:)

Anyway, so, I would especially be interested in other Treasurers’ 
experiences dealing with this issue as well as other advice in general from 
them.

Thanking folks in advance,
