[NFBMO] Help Wanted

[linda at coccovizzo.com]

Thank you Gene. The reminder of the passing of the hat is always a good
thing before convention. It gives people a chance to remember to look for
some of that change out of their couches, and otherwise forgotten bills out
of their jacket pockets.

As we celebrate our 61st annual convention and 20 years of the Lewis and
Clark Chapter   we also celebrate all of the first time attendees who are
joining  us this year many of them with help from the Rittgers Convention
Memorial fund.

George and Gwen Rittgers wanted to assure that everyone who wanted to
experience at least one state convention would not be stopped by lack of
funds. In the past few years well over 50 folks have received support from
this fund which Gwen established.

I would like to thank our chapters for their very generous  donations this
year, it is a true blessing. However, once again, a record number of people
have sought and received support from the fund.

On Saturday afternoon we  will pass the hat to give our membership the
opportunity to donate to this vital fund. Many of our current leaders
received funding for their first convention.where would we be without these
amazing people?!

So, please dig deep and contribute what you can. Obviously tens, twenties
and even hundreds are great but no donation is too small. We will gratefully
accept a penny if that is all you can spare.

Eugene Coulter, 

Rittgers Convention Memorial Fund Chair
