[nfbwatlk] A question of recruitment

[Mackenstadt, Gary]

There is no specific answer to your question about attracting and keeping people.  I think it is imperative that we have a student division.

Hello my NFB friends:
 
Earlier this week I posted a question concerning a student division.  
Jennifer asked me a very good question. How do we attract members and keep them  
interested. I'm especially interested in attracting young members. The student  
division is a good start. On the other hand, there are not that many students in 
 the NFBW. Perhaps we need to concentrate our efforts on recruiting and 
keeping  our present membership interested. Not always a simple task. 
 
I'm committed to reaching out to all interested parties. It takes time and  
effort, but it's worth it.
 
I think this is a good topic to discuss and something to consider and think  
about.
 
Warmest regards and many blessings to all of you:
