Yes! Many thanks to our merchants for going above and beyond. They exhibited the true spirit of the NFB, and I am so thankful as well.

Besides assembling 150 snack bags, they made Blimpie Subs lunch boxes that rose above expectations.  The Blind Merchants Division also came in within the week of the convention and was able to provide breakfast to our members on Sunday morning, saving our affiliate $5000 for that meal alone!

There were two large boxes that the hotel misplaced when shifting convention materials around, making the amount of prizes significantly less than what was brought.  The generous donation was so gracious and thoughtful.
