[Nfbv-announce] Donation to the NFB

[Michael Kasey]

Members of the NFB of Virginia and Friends,

 

I write to let you know the NFB of Virginia intends to make a donation to
our Jernigan Institute to help defray the costs incurred for our visit May 5
- 8.  If you are able and willing, we would appreciate donations to be made
by sending a check made payable to "NFB" to

NFB of Virginia

3230 Grove Avenue

Richmond, Virginia 23221

 

To those of you who are participating in this historic visit, I ask that if
you can and are willing, please be prepared to contribute to our collection
during our visit.  There is no charge to each of us.  However there are
cost incurred by the NFB for our 2 or 3 night accommodations, food and staff
salaries for the weekend.  So we will "pass the bucket" Saturday evening in
hope all will be generous.

 

Looking forward to seeing all 73 of you next week!

 

Michael Kasey

President

National Federation of the Blind of Virginia

 

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.
