Enter the Give $20 Convention Drawing 

Each year, thousands of Federation members contribute to our programs that create opportunities for blind people. When you participate in the Give $20 campaign <https://nfb.org/civicrm/mailing/url?u=21909&qid=5621232>  you will be entered into the Give $20 Convention Drawing AND support important funds, like the tenBroek Memorial Fund which maintains the National Federation of the Blind headquarters building, known as the Jernigan Institute, in Baltimore for the benefit of blind people.

“My family is grateful for the several opportunities to visit the Jernigan Institute, where my daughter got to experience that independence is possible. The grilling space encouraged her to start contributing to chores and cooking at home. The space also offered her social opportunities, mentorship, and confidence building in organic and fun ways!” - Parent of a blind child
