[NHLakesChapter] Sharing my gratitude to all of you in an additional format

Fri Jun 9 18:22:18 UTC 2023

Randy P.,
I thank you for your kind words & thoughts for our NFB NH Affiliate & it’s EQUALIZERS team. As Kelley & Jean have so we’ll expressed it, we all share common goals to help those in NH  with vision loss to adapt & go forth to live the lives they want! We are pleased to do what we can toward that goal by our fundraising efforts for the FIS annual Walk For Sight. Many of us have greatly benefited from FIS services & programs. We are pleased to contribute so others may benefit. 

We too look forward to our friendly competition & celebration at next year’s Walk on May 18, 2024!

Thank you also for the gift of hat & water/ thermos bottle. Both will be very useful.

The affiliate & Equalizers team also wish you a very Happy Birthday! (big smile for you!)

Best wishes,
Deb Moore
Captain, NFB NH EQUALIZERS Team & 
NFB NH Board Member

Every member of the team should be receiving regular mail, including a Braille version of this letter and some other comments. I wanted to ensure you all Received my gratitude in yet another format, this mailing list. I have been watching with both pride and appreciation through the entire process. Here is a paste of the letter I have sent to each member of the team.

Honestly, I was sad to not be on your roster as I value my being a member with you. Of course, as part of the Future In Sight Dream Team, we had such a fun competition for “top dog” as Swirl might call it. I may have barely sneaked past Fred as an individual but your team soundly rose above us, highlighting the value of a motivated team. We are all  ultimately working together towards a common vision. I know all of you understand how important it is to support each other in raising awareness as powerfully as possible. Additionally we need the essential fund raising to  ensure Future In Sight may provide the training, tools and services to all the people in NH who experience blindness and visual impairment. Together we are building a better future in sight for everyone!
