[stylist] Stories for my newsletter

Cheryl, it occurs to me you have something unique going here.  I wonder if grants are available from sources other than CBVH?  Non governmental sources, such as the founder of Microsoft.  Bill Gates and his wife, Melinda (I think is her name) have a foundation, though I don't know exactly what he chooses to give grants to.  Google Foundations, and Grants, and see what comes up.

Good morning all:

You may know that I have my own travel agency, but some of you may not know
that I have a monthly Newsletter (e-mail format) I am currently working on
the March 2010 edition, and for those who would just like to register can
either go to my website and register or send me an e-mail to my business
address at reservations at echevarriatravel.com
put subscribe in the subject line.

What I would like to do for the March edition is to have a story from a
Guide Dog User about where they have traveled.

The good, the bad, and possibly the ugly of your experience. It could show
from traveling from your home to the airport, on the plane and bus, your
experience at either the hotel and resort you stayed at, or even on a 
cruise.

My newsletter does focus on the blind client, as to try and educate the
blind person to get out of their shell to travel either independently or
with others, and to educate the sighted on how better to serve our community
and what to ask and look for in helping us to become more independent. 
Recently I held a training seminar with the President of NAGDU, Mr. Marion 
Gwizdala, for my host agency Montrose Travel, to educate others in the 
travel industry about the blind, the NFB, and about traveling with a guide 
dog. I would like to continue this in my March Edition

We can either do the interview over the phone, or I can send a questionnaire
through the e-mail.

I would like to get my newsletter out by the 7th of March, so my deadline is
March 4th, since I also have to edit it, as well as other things in the
newsletter.


Thank you.
