You can start giving now by visiting <a href="https://www.midlandsgives.org/rockybottom"><span style='color:#954F72'>https://www.midlandsgives.org/rockybottom</span></a>, and donations will end on May 2, 2023. On May 2, we will set up a donation station where folks will be standing bye at the Federation Center to help if you’d prefer to give over the phone or in person. You can reach the Federation Center at, (803) 254-3777. Our goal is to get as many donations as we can between 12:00 and 1:00 PM, giving Rocky Bottom the chance to win a special prize during the Midlands Gives Power Hour. The organization that receives the most unique donors during that hour will win a nice sum. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;color:black'>I brought some gifts from the Rocky Bottom store to give to donors who give to Rocky Bottom at the Federation Center.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;color:black'> Please help support this beautiful space unique to the blind of South Carolina.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0)'><span style='font-size:13.5pt;color:black'>#MidlandsGives<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0)'><span style='font-size:13.5pt;color:black'>#InvestForImpact<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;color:black'>Thom Spittle<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;color:black'>Chairman<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;color:black'>Rocky Bottom<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;color:black'>803-331-3344<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
