Congratulations, NFB of New Hampshire!!

I'm attaching a photo from yesterday's event that the Nash representative sent me today. It brought tears to my eyes for many good reasons.

I'm grateful to President Deanna O’Brien, her husband, Dennis O’Brien, and Vice President Sheryl Dutton for attending the check presentation ceremony. Thank you! You all look so amazing in the photo! It is a wonderful picture. Their professional photographer did a great job with the photo.

President Deanna, I hope you had a wonderful time with your VP and husband receiving the funding for the organization you love, cherish, and work tirelessly to support. Again, thank you!

Kindly, yours in health

Melissa

Secretary, NFB of NH

The picture below is titled, “National Federation of the Blind of NH.”

The second line shows we received $195,274 from the Nash Casino.

Then the picture below the verbiage shows a representative on the far left, then VP Sheryl Dutton holding the corner of the big check, then our president, Deanna, in the middle, standing next to Sheryl, then Dennis O’Brien, Deanna’s husband, next to her, holding the other corner of the check, ending with another representative.

The last line of the picture states, “Pay it Forward” with arrows pointing to the National Federation of the Blind logo.

I’m not that well-versed in writing pictures, but I did my best so everyone has a chance to feel the great news for our organization and feel a sense of the picture. Lastly, I can send the photo in a different format if it's not visually pleasing or is blurry. Please let me know.
