Goodwill Protest Details

Hello Everyone This is an e-mail from the NFB of Colorado detailing the Colorado Protest of Goodwill Industries.  If you are readign this and are from another state contact your states National Federation of the Blind affiliate for more information.  If you do not know how to get in touch with someone from your affiliate contact me and I can help!  jbeecham@cocenter.org or 303-778-1130 extension 223 Best Wishes Jessica Beecham Fellow Federationists and Friends: We will be conducting informational protests at two Goodwill locations this coming Saturday, August 25th, from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.  In Denver, we will protest at the Goodwill facility at 21 South Broadway which is just South of Elsworth on the west side of Broadway.  We will also be protesting at a location in Colorado  Springs, which we haven’t quite pickd yet.  However, we will be sending a bus  down from Denver to help our C. Springs chapter.  That bus will leave our Colorado Center for the Blind at 9:15 a.m.  The protest will occur at the same time as our Denver event, from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and the bus will return to Denver immediately after the protest. We need all Federationists on deck and look forward to seeing you on Saturday.  Please let Jessica Beecham know that you are attending and tell her which  location you would like to attend.  You can email her at jbeecham@nfbco.org or call her at 303 778-1130, ext. 223.  We are encouraging  those willing to travel a bit to take the bus down to Springs.  That bus is wheel chair accessible and please let Jessica know if you are using a wheel chair. I will be writing all of you  soon to give you the precise location of our C. Springs protest.  Please also stayed tuned to your emails and our website because it is even possible that the Denver location could change.  Thanks, Scott C. LaBarre, President National Federation of the Blind of Colorado
