On about 10 October, five dollars will come out of the treasury to go to our national office, and that amount will actually set us into the red. (We will actually have a balance, but it will be below the balance at which we do not get a monthly charge from the bank.) So, we will remain close. So I am hoping to get at least $5.00 or $10.00 from five or six different people. Not only does that give us a nice little cushion, but it also will make the drawing more fun.<div><br></div><div>Thank you.</div><div><br></div><div>Dan Hicks,</div><div>Treasurer,</div><div>Tampa Chapter</div><div>National Federation of the blind of Florida</div><div><br><div dir="ltr">Sent from my iPhone</div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On Sep 20, 2020, at 6:17 PM, Pierce Amaral, Susan via NFBF-Tampa <nfbf-tampa@nfbnet.org> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr">

<p class="x_MsoNormal">Fellow Tampa Bay Chapter Members, </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">The Tampa Bay Chapter has contributed the amounts it has pledged to the NFBF Treasury to cover the amounts we pledged for contributions to the NFBF Scholarship Program and for the door prizes our chapter will contribute to the upcoming
Virtual NFBF Convention. </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">This is a good thing, but it poses a problem. It puts our Treasury at a balance up just below the $1500.00 we need to have in our treasury in order to maintain free checking.
</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">So far, the only contribution I have received for 50/50 tickets is my own. I need your contributions for the 50/50 drawing as soon as possible.
</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Please use PayPal to send your contribution to</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><a href="mailto:tampabay@nfbflorida.org">tampabay@nfbflorida.org</a></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">as soon as possible. </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">If you are paying from a bank account, you can use the “Send to a friend” option and it will not cost the chapter a service fee, but use a credit card if you need to.
</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">If you don’t have PayPal, you might be able to work out something with someone who does, or we might be able to work out something with Venmo or the Cash Ap, as I have both of those. The chapter has a Square account, but that will involve
your giving me a credit or debit card number via phone, text, or email, and I would rather not do that.
</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Remember you get one ticket for each dollar up to $4.00 or six tickets for $5.00. Consider contributing $10 or more for twelve or more tickets – think of all the money you are
</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Saving by not taking HART-Plus to in person meetings! The winner will receive half the proceeds, and we will pay the winner via PayPal or send an old-fashioned check.
</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Please make your contributions right away!</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Looking forward to talking to you and drawing our winner this coming Saturday! Thank you all.
