I have just donated $103 to the Barksdale Metro Fund to increase the total amount of scholarship money this year. Why $103? Three percent of the total donation goes to pay fees to PayPal. Since I want all $100 to go to the DCB Metro Fund, I added the three percent. Now, I challenge any individual, chapter, division, group of individuals, chapters or divisions to do the same. For those who have donated already, the Scholarship Program is better for it. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Thank you to Belvedere, Chesterfield, Columbia, Computer Science and Tech Division, Greenville, and Jenny Smith for their generous donations to this year’s scholarship fund. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">To donate, go to <a href="http://www.nfbofsc.org">www.nfbofsc.org</a>, click the “donate now” link, then complete the form. Be sure to specify that the donation should go for the Metro Fund. If you are new at donating this way, you will complete the form on the affiliate website. You will then be directed to the PayPal site to complete the payment. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">This opportunity to invest in young members is just another way we can build the Federation. <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">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><span>_______________________________________________</span><br><span>NFBofSC mailing list</span><br><span>NFBofSC@nfbnet.org</span><br><span>http://nfbnet.org/mailman/listinfo/nfbofsc_nfbnet.org</span><br><span>To unsubscribe, change your list options or get your account info for NFBofSC:</span><br><span>http://nfbnet.org/mailman/options/nfbofsc_nfbnet.org/smwtimmons%40icloud.com</span><br></div></blockquote></div></body></html>
