[NFBMI-Talk] FW: Matching gifts this Meet the Blind Month: double your dollars

[Michael Powell]

Hello to all.

As October is Meet the Blind Month, our national office is sharing news concerning a match being given to any donations received by NFB up to $50000 during the month of October.  I touched upon this during Monday’s convention kickoff meeting and at chapter meetings.  So make any gift count double while you have the chance.  

During this year, because of the pandemic, NFB worked very hard on outreach efforts and support and training to our affiliates through Zoom and other venues.  While our virtual convention was a great success we were limited in the ways we usually raise funds when we have live conventions.  So anything you can give would definitely be appreciated and will go even farther because of the match .

Below is the information concerning the match, the ways to donate, and a video to share and enjoy.

Thank you.

Michael Powell
