National Convention Financial Responsibilities: 

Each year affiliates and national divisions make donations to the funds that
help sustain our movement. This is often done during Honor Roll Call during
the General Assembly. Affiliates and divisions should send an email to let
us know the name of the organization, how much it is contributing to each
fund, and when the check is expected to be mailed. We will collect and track
this information as contributions are received. We ask that all pledges be
fulfilled by August 1, 2023. You should make donations to respective Funds
payable to National Federation of the Blind indicating that specific fund.
Make sure to put Honor Roll Call in the memo of any check sent for this
purpose, and mail it to 200 East Wells Street, Baltimore, MD 21230,
Attention: Fiscal Services - Roll Call.

 

Board of Director's suggestion of financial donations: 

1. Kenneth Jernigan Fund, 

2. Jacobus TenBroek Memorial Fund, 

3. SUN Fund, 

4. and White Cane Fund,

 

Door Prizes:

Door prizes are being accepted for the 2023 National Convention. We request
cash donations so that we can distribute gift cards and gift certificates as
prizes. Cash donations make it easier to create prize groups and to
distribute prizes from one location. Please make your checks payable to
National Federation of the Blind and write Door Prizes in the memo. You
should mail the check to National Federation of the Blind, 200 East Wells
Street, Baltimore, MD 21230, Attention: Fiscal Services - DP. By addressing
the check this way, we will easily identify it as a door prize and process
it accordingly. You can also send an email to  <mailto:prize at nfb.org>
prize at nfb.org to let us know you are sending a contribution for the door
prizes and the full name of the organization that the contribution is from.
We want to make sure we recognize your organization in our thank-you list.
You can contact Bridgid Burke ( <mailto:bburke at nfb.org> bburke at nfb.org
