There was a wonderful response to this year’s program. The committee decided on the following individuals. Please join us in congratulating Kris Crawley, Melinda Jones, and Roosevelt Burgess. All three of these recipients have jumped right into active participation ever since joining our affiliate within the past two or so years. I hope that this program will expand in the years to come to allow us to offer even more of these grants to first-time attendees.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>We are excited for all of the applicants who applied to be at this year’s state convention and learn, grow, and thrive in the NFB of SC Family.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Shannon Cook<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Palmetto Convention Grant Committee Chair<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>And Member, National Federation of the Blind of South Carolina<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The greatest investment you can make in this world is kindness.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
