Come join the   San Francisco Chapter of the National Federation of
the Blind   for a very enjoyable festive holiday season afternoon of
good food, good friends, and good wine!!!  The National Federation of
the Blind is recognized as the largest collective action national
organization of consumer blind persons, since 1940, now well over
50,000 strong in number in the US, as well as their families.  We are
involved with the increasing number of persons, loosing their vision
each year, to assist them in order to become fully pro-active, and
productive tax-paying, citizens just as our sighted colleagues.

The National Federation of the Blind: San Francisco Chapter (NFBC SF)
will be holding it’s annual Holiday party/fund raiser at A.G. Ferrari
San Francisco – SOMA. 686 Mission St. (between New Montgomery St. near
3rd St.), San Francisco, CA 94105, on Saturday afternoon, December 5,
2009, from 2 P.M., until about 4 P.M.  At this event we plan to have a
raffle, of a number of items, (including a $100.00, gift basket

the door, and inside the store at $1.00, per ticket, and $5.00, for
six tickets.

In addition to the raffle, as part of this holiday fund raising event,
at A.G. Ferrari’, we will be conducting an auction where participants

items.  All contributions from registered participants to attend our
holiday party celebration, for $10.00, along with contributions for
raffle tickets sold inside of A.G. Ferrari, as well as contributions

in both the raffle and the auction.  Also, you will have an
opportunity to sample as many great parings of tastings  of A.G.F.
Rosso, Bianco and Prosecco.  ,  and cheese as your heart desires.  The

"And if you will join me in this improbable quest, if you feel destiny
calling, and see as I see, a future of endless possibility stretching
before us;
if you sense, as I sense, that the time is now to shake off our
slumber, and slough off our fear, and make good on the debt we owe
past and future generations,
then I'm ready to take up the cause, and march with you, and work with
you. Together, starting today, let us finish the work that needs to be
done, and
usher in a new birth of freedom on this Earth."- Baraq Obama
