[Ohio-talk] Community Days Fundraiser Elder BeermanBeer

Mon Sep 24 22:17:25 UTC 2012

The booklets are $5  each. This effort being done by P o b c in conjunction with N f b. parents talked if just letting the state benefit from the money. We had talked of having it earmarked for the new center being planned fir Ohio. I thought it would be nice to have an initial amount from parents as seed money if you will. But although most parents see the good in that idea, some think not.

>>>> There are at least 20 stores in Ohio, 3 in KY, 7 in W VA, 10 in Indiana, , 2 Illinois, 1 Wisconsin. So plenty around if you have friends or family who might like to purchase in support of NFB. Ohio list includes- Alliance, Athens, Beavercreek, Bowling Green, Chillicothe, Defiance, Dayton, Findlay, Kettering, Lancaster, Lima, Marion, Middletown, New Philadelphia, Newark, Piqua, Springfield, Wooster, Zanesville. A place for everyone to set up a table outside the store doors to sell booklets, give out NFB literature, demonstrate Braille by writing kids names, etc. meet the blind, their dogs, canes & technology! All while making money for our desperately aching treasury. Use this interaction for Gavel reports & more! Make it a chapter project, or even a challenge! It starts immediately & ends with the Community Days sale weekend. What do you think?
