#NFB21 National Convention: Mini Communications Toolkit for Members


Federationists: we need your help publicizing the National Federation of the Blind National Convention and increasing registration before May 31. Please use this toolkit for social media and mailing lists you manage. Your help is greatly appreciated to make this the biggest event of the year! If you haven't registered yet, please register now at nfb.org/registration <https://nfb.org/civicrm/mailing/url?u=21157&qid=5403669> .

This toolkit includes content templates to simply copy and paste to the corresponding platform. Please feel free to edit into your own words as needed. It’s also great to add a convention story. Attached is the NFB21 image to use on social media. 

The alt text or image description is National Federation of the Blind logo, 2021 National Convention, July 6-10, Anywhere and Everywhere; An image of the United States with lines connecting and intersecting over the top of it.
