[Nfbnet-members-list] Meet The Blind Month Coming Soon

[David Andrews]

 From Mika Baugh:


Fellow Federationists,



As you know, Meet the Blind Month is less than a month away! I hope 
the event planning and organizing is going well in your area and that 
you and your chapter are excited to change what it means to be blind 
this October!



As a reminder, you can find all the information you need on the 
<http://www.nfb.org/meet-blind-month>Meet the Blind Month homepage. 
This includes: campaign guidelines, information about the challenges, 
sample white cane and meet the blind month proclamations, and much 
more. You can also find the material order form and a list of al 
materials available through the Independence Market.



I also want to encourage you to purchase your Meet the Blind Month 
T-Shirts soon. The deadline to order is this Friday, September 7. 
Orders placed by this date will be delivered before October 1. You 
may place orders after this date, but your shirts may not arrive by 
October 1. The t-shirt order form is attached to this e-mail, and can 
also be found on the <http://www.nfb.org/meet-blind-month>Meet the 
Blind Month homepage. Shirts are $9.50 for regular sizes and $12.50 
for extended sizes. The shirts are available in five colors: ash 
grey, light sand, aquatic blue, lime green, and light pink. The front 
of the shirt says, "National Federation of the Blind Meet the Blind 
Month 2012" in purple and black lettering. The back of the shirt 
says, "Build the Dream" with the Whozit logo and the text-to-give 
information beneath it. This lettering is also in purple and black. 
These shirts are a great way to generate donations to the Imagination 
Fund and are designed to look well on both men and women. The variety 
of colors allows each member to choose his or her personal favorite, 
and caters to both younger and older members. Please note that 
affiliates or chapters who place group orders will save on shipping 
costs, so I urge you to collaborate with your fellow members if 
possible when you order.



If you have any questions or concerns, or would like assistance in 
planning your Meet the Blind Month events, please feel free to 
contact me at any time. I look forward to hearing from you soon.



Cordially,



Mika Baugh
