[Nfb-fundraising] Grants for Running Programs for Children

[Everett Gavel]

Hmm... how could Federationists use this money?
Student division running programs, maybe?  Sports &
Recreation Division programming, perhaps?  Such a
program would easily work towards better health, allow
for outreach, and show a positive aspect and truth of
blindness, all at the same time.  Not too shabby an
opportunity, here.  ;-)

To Your Funding Success!
