[Ohio-talk] Question about National Convention assistance

[Deanna Lewis]

Thank you for the information Barbara! I hadn't even thought about looking at last year's Monitor for the info, what a great idea.
I hope you have a very nice weekend!

Starting in February or so, the Braille Monitor starts running the Jernigan Fund article as the last piece before the recipes. You would find it in last March’s issue or this month. It was not in January, but I feel certain it should pop up soon. The Harrises’ home phone number is 205-520-9979. . I would urge her to attend a chapter or division meeting so that she can be seen as a real new member.

Good luck,
Barbara

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.

Since this is her first convention, I believe her best option would be to apply for the Jernigan Fund through the national office. I tried to find the information on the NFB website, but couldn't find what I was looking for. I also sent an email but did not get a reply. Does anyone know how I can assit this lady as to where she can find the application for the Jernigan first time convention attendee fund? Thanks for any help!
