> Hi All,
> 
> 
> 
> I hope you are all getting ready for our in-person State Convention.  If you
> have not registered yet, please go to www.nfbcal.org/convention
> <http://www.nfbcal.org/convention>  and click on the Register Now link.  
> 
> 
> 
> It's Door Prize time!  I hope each chapter or individual members will donate
> a door prize for State Convention.
> 
> 
> 
> This year, we will have both In Person & Virtual door prize drawings during
> state convention. Below you will find step-by-step instructions on how to
> submit a door prize for State Convention. If you wish to bring door prize(s)
> to State Convention please contact Tiffany Manosh either Thursday or Friday
> once at the hotel.
> 
> 
> 
> Step by Step directions:
> 
> *  Go to amazon.com <https://www.amazon.com/>  and look for an item. This
> would be something you'd like to donate as a door prize. For example, I
> chose a SanDisk 32GB USB-2.0 flash drive, as It was cheap, will be available
> when the time comes and has broad appeal in our membership
> 
> *  While on the product page for the item you want to donate, copy the
> website URL (web address) for that page so it can be pasted into the door
> prize web page.
> 
> *  Once you have copied the URL, go to:
> https://web.nfbcal.org/doorprize.html There you will find a page where you
> can register as a door prize donor. It will want your name, address, phone
> number, name of the donating party, if you're donating on a chapter's behalf
> or on behalf of a group of people, a link to the item on Amazon's web site
> and the price Amazon is charging for the item. Fill those items in and click
> next.
> 
> *  Where it asks for the Amazon product's URL (website address) paste the
> product's URL which you copied above and paste it here. You will also need
> the price of the product.
> 
> *  If you did not write down the price of the product return to the Amazon
> Product you wish to donate and find the price. Once you have the price go
> back to the donation page and enter the price on the form. The form will add
> an additional 12% to the final cost of the donation for PayPal fees, then
> press Submit.
> 
> *  You will now be on a confirmation page where all the information you gave
> in step three is displayed for your verification. Make sure it is correct
> and, if it needs fixing, click your browser's back button to make the
> changes and repeat this step. If all is well, you can click the Pay Now
> button, and you'll be taken to PayPal's web site where you can donate the
> cost of the donated item, to the NFB of California affiliate.
> 
> *  Once you've paid, you'll receive two emails. The first will be from
> PayPal, showing your payment and this will be the one you want to keep for
> your taxes if you deduct such donations. The second email will be from the
> door prize donation system and will show the information you verified in
> step six, above. Receiving the second email is a confirmation that your
> donation was received and that your donation has been submitted to the door
> prize coordinator and will be in the pool of door prizes given away at the
> convention. It's important to know that if you don't receive that second
> email, it's highly likely the door prize coordinator didn't receive your
> door prize either.

> If you have any questions or need help please let me know.
