[NFBV-Announce] [VABS] Exciting NABS annual Walk-a-thon registration now open!

[jackibruce6 at gmail.com]

Greetings,

 

The National Association of Blind Students Annual Walk-A-Thon is happening
soon! This fun effort will focus on raising funds for our organization which
provides many resources for blind students, including mentorship, guidance
on success in high school and higher education, sponsoring attendance at
leadership seminars, and sending national student leaders to events to
empower our youth.

 

 

Please join NABS by participating in this initiative, solely involving
walking.something that is routine to most of us! You will be able to
participate anywhere in the world, as long as you are willing to review your
steps at the beginning and end of the day, but we hope you will be walking
with us in Orlando, FL, in conjunction with the National Convention of the
National Federation of the Blind.

 

 

As for participating, there will be exciting incentives! The incentives will
include $100 for the individual who raises the most, 10% of the total pot
for the affiliate who raises the most, and pizza for the group who wins the
most. For those who raise $25, you will be put into a raffle to potentially
get $50 in cash.

 

 

Below, you will find two different links. One is to a Google Form that we
ask you to fill out when participating, this allows for tracking purposes.

The other link will be to the NABS Rally Up page, which provides a way for
more information and how you will be participating or donating in the
Walk-A-Thon. You will need to make an account on rally up as a way of
participation. With rally up, you are able to have individuals donate
directly to the website or have people sponsor you per metric that they are
willing to sponsor you for. For example, I would give you $50 for every mile
that you walk. All proceeds under your name will go towards what you raise
overall and would be taken into account when calculating for the incentives.

 

 

Please note that you have to fill out both the Google form and the rally up
sign ups in order to be eligible for the incentives. Completing both actions
should take no longer than 15 minutes!
