Hey NFB Family and Friends,

 

I  hope everyone is doing well and surviving in all of this pollen and crazy
hot and cold weather. Grab an iced tea and a  picnic basket  or a  cup of
hot coffee and a  fuzzy blankie, depending on the minute, and read on! 

 

Spotlight On.

 The bingo party may be over (congratulations to winner Nancy Yeager) but
the fund-raiser is not. Last night, Rachel informed us that the time for
purchasing is being extended through the end of the month, and we will
receive *30* percent, that's right, thirty percent, of sales which use the
link for purchases made. Aside from raising money for our state convention
in October, There are many reasons to purchase something: for your own
kitchen, Mother's Day, Father's Day, graduations, and of course, to perhaps
donate a door prize to a chapter or affiliate auction, or to the National
Convention. We have already raised about $500 toward our upcoming state
convention. Please spread the word, and don't forget to send the link with
the word. Send to family, to friends, to groups to which you are a member.
Let's do this.
