Dear Michigan Federationists:

     Here is some information concerning the online Bid for Equality

So, here is take 2!

Sincerely,

Munising home of the beautiful Pictured Rocks.


Our NFB Bid for Equality nationwide online auction will be active and
open for bidding starting on Black Friday, November 28, thru Giving
Tuesday, December 2, closing on December 4. We are counting on you to
help make this event successful.  We sincerely hope each of you are
well at work creating interesting auction packages.



Some helpful documents are attached.

the National Auction Letter template is a document you can use when
requesting donated goods or services to create your auction packages.
This document contains our tax id number.



The Package Details letter can be used to assist you with ideas and
strategies for developing your packages. It also describes the online
package information submission tool.  This year we will be using this
tool to better document the auction items and to make sure we promote
your package to the fullest.



Remember that everyone can participate by registering, and inviting
others to register, to cast their bid for equality by visiting:

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.
