Our Action Auction needs YOU!

 

Hey NFBV Family!  It's almost time for our State Convention!  If you haven't
already done so, please donate your wonderful items to the Action Auction!
Help us raise lots of money for our Silver BELLS Program! 

 

The success of the National Federation of the Blind of Virginia (NFBV) is
built on the generosity of our members to contribute time, talents, and
money to our movement. However, if we can make fundraising fun, this is even
better.

The NFB of Virginia will be having an Auction at its state convention in
Portsmouth, - October 31 - November 3, 2024.  We need good NEW, HAND-MADE or
ANTIQUE ITEMS to auction.   To submit auction items for consideration,
please submit your item using our simple online form:

https://nfbv.org/auction

If you have questions or are uncertain if your item is auction worthy,
please contact Jacki Brown: jacquelinestonebrown at comcast.net
<mailto:jacquelinestonebrown at comcast.net> 

Our Action Auction team will be releasing the information about what is
being offered at least a week before the convention via our NFBV Announce
Listserv. 

PLEASE DONATE NOW!

Then bring your donated items to the convention.  Auction items can be
dropped off on Thursday evening at registration or on Friday/Saturday during
General Session. Just like our prior in-person conventions there will be a
table set up with the items offered outside the exhibit hall on Friday and
in the meeting room on Saturday and Sunday. On Friday the Action Auction
volunteers will accept items for auction and describe each item to all who
stop by. LIVE AUCTION WILL START FRIDAY MORNING AND GO ON BOTH SATURDAY AND
SUNDAY during general meetings and at the Banquet. 

Remember - this is our chance to raise money for ourselves in a fun way -
also a way to buy only previously dreamed of luxuries from our friends.

All funds raised from the auction will be used to support our Silver Bells
program to support independence for blind and low vision seniors. Get your
items in early!

Questions should be directed to Jacki Brown,
jacquelinestonebrown at comcast.net <mailto:jacquelinestonebrown at comcast.net> 

Thank you everybody!
