[NFBMI-Talk] The Awesome Fundraising Update

[Robert Earl Parsons]

Greetings Friends and Federation Family

We are getting closer to our national convention in New Orleans and the fundraising committee is coming to you with another update.

Auction: Our Summer auction request for pledges and donations has been promising. After our last state board meeting, the committee reached out to a number of donors from previous years and new partners. We have received some generous and positive pledges so far, including:

  *   Assistive Technology Training
  *   Amazon Fire Television
  *   Apple TV 4K Streaming Device
  *   Women's Spa Basket
  *   Lounging Wine Basket
  *   Bachelor's Whiskey Basket


These are great, but our affiliate is known for exceeding expectations with auctions. It's not too late to get involved by securing a pledge for a donation. Our affiliate is accepting auction items and monetary donations to this endeavor. The pledge form is attached to this message and we encourage all of you to share it with possible donors. If you have an item or would like to support this project monetarily, please complete the form and return it to me at Robert.E.Parsons at wmich.edu<mailto:Robert.E.Parsons at wmich.edu>. The deadline for ALL submissions is May 1, 2022. We hope to receive your support, let's go build the Federation.

With Love,
