> Dear Colleague:

> As you are aware, we established the Kenneth Jernigan Convention
> Scholarship Fund at our 1998 convention in Dallas, Texas. The support
> from members and friends has been both generous and enthusiastic. The
> committee is again sponsoring a limited edition raffle to raise money
> for the Kenneth Jernigan Fund. The ticket cost is ten dollars. This
> drawing will yield at least
> $10,000 net for the Kenneth Jernigan Fund.

> You might ask, "What's in it for me?" Here is what's in it for you. If
> you are the winner of this drawing, you will receive round-trip air
> transportation for two to and from the National Federation of the
> Blind National Convention in July 2019. You will also receive lodging
> at that year's convention hotel for seven days during the convention.
> You will receive registration and banquet tickets for two. In
> addition, you will receive a cash prize of $1,000. On the other hand,
> if you don't win but you sell the winning ticket, your chapter will
> receive $500. You do not have to be present to win.

> We are asking each state affiliate to either sell or buy its allotment
> of tickets. If you choose to buy tickets for your affiliate, a
> suggested use is to donate tickets to the door prize chairman to be
> included with regular convention prize drawings.

> We believe these tickets are being distributed early enough so that
> all sales can be final by June 15. Please send money and stubs for tickets
sold to:

>             Jernigan Fund Committee

>             c/o Susan Skaarer

>             National Federation of the Blind

>             200 East Wells Street

>             Baltimore, Maryland 21230

> After June 15, please bring ticket stubs, money, and any unsold
> tickets to the national convention and turn them in at the Jernigan
> Fund table. Please have checks made payable to the National Federation
> of the Blind and note KJ Fund on the memo line.

> Be sure to endorse the back of the ticket stubs with your chapter name
> so we can send your chapter $500 should the ticket you sold be the
> winner. If you choose to buy the tickets so you can donate them to the
> door prize committee, please endorse each stub (leave the ticket
> attached) and return the whole tickets with your check and
> instructions that the tickets are to be turned over to the door prize
committee.

> We are counting on you to help build the Kenneth Jernigan Fund so we
> can accomplish the goals

> Dr. Jernigan set forth for us. Remember, the drawing winner need not
> be present at the banquet to win.

> If you are unable to sell your allocation of tickets, please contact
