[NFBA-Phoenix] Phoenix Chapter September 11, 2021, Business Meeting Agenda & Zoom Information 09-08-2021

[Brad Kuhn]

Greetings to all my fellow phoenix Federation friends;
Below is the agenda and zoom link for this Saturday’s meeting. If you have interest in mingling with others until the meeting starts, I will open up the room at about 845. Come one come all. We have a lot to discuss for meet the blind month and I want you to hear the results of our popcorn sales. There will be discussion about meeting in person in the month of October and we’re already making preparations for a long overdue event and with Christmas around the corner the Christmas party will be a big topic. And we also have a guest speaker this month. Someone coming from far far away. Not a galaxy though Romania. I hope everyone has recouped enough from the state convention to be bright eyed and bushy tailed on Saturday for the September chapter meeting. Well see you all there.
Sincerely,
Bradley Kuhn
Phoenix Chapter president

>> The Phoenix Chapter is selling popcorn from September 2 through September 10 at 11:59 P.m. Below, is the link where popcorn can be purchased, and have it mailed directly to your address. Three flavors are offered through this fundraiser. You can buy buttery caramel, white cheddar, or jalapeño cheese. With your generosity and support, our chapter can raise funds to help new members to attend a convention, or even lobby Congress at the Washington seminar. The success of this fundraiser will determine whether or not we want to sell fudge at Christmas time, through this platform.  Therefore, come support the Phoenix chapter, and “let’s all go build the Federation!”

>> 
>>  
>> 
>> THE NATIONAL FEDERATION OF THE BLIND KNOWS THAT BLINDNESS IS NOT THE CHARACTERISTIC THAT DEFINES YOU OR YOUR FUTURE.
>> 
>>  
>> 
>> EVERY DAY WE RAISE THE EXPECTATIONS OF BLIND PEOPLE, BECAUSE LOW EXPECTATIONS CREATE OBSTACLES BETWEEN BLIND PEOPLE AND OUR DREAMS. YOU CAN LIVE THE LIFE YOU WANT; BLINDNESS IS NOT WHAT HOLDS YOU BACK.
