3rd Annual Braille is Hot Chili Cook Off October 26, 2019

 
Dear friends!
Please find after my message information on our upcoming chili competition and fundraiser. Information on how to sponsor and get exposure can be found below. The event will include the chili competition, live entertainment, and auction.  Many of you contributed last year, and it would not of been so successful if it wasn’t for you! I truly appreciate your leadership in our community, fine example, and support! Even if you cannot sponsor, we would love to have you enter the chili competition! There is not an entry fee. Together, we will grow and strengthen our community! Thank you again, and I look forward to seeing you all soon! Now a note from our VP James Brown:
 
Dear Community Partner,
I’m pleased to announce that the National Federation of the Blind Nashville Chapter’s 3rd Annual  Braille is Hot Chili Cook-off will be held on October 26, from 6:00-8:00 PM, at the Tennessee School for the Blind in Nashville.  Since this event can offer great exposure for your organization, I wanted to give you an early opportunity to help blind Nashvillians live the lives they want through a little friendly chili competition!
The Braille is Hot Chili Cook-off is the chapter’s biggest event of the year, benefiting blind people through things like funding Braille camps for blind children, technology to help blind people access the world, and simply giving blind people access to tools that can help them live wonderful and productive lives.  Your involvement will definitely help our programs be open to more visually impaired people across Middle Tennessee.
 
The main ways to get involved are: 
• Become one of our sponsors. 
·      Donate items for the Auction.
• Come be a volunteer at the Chili Cook-off!
Being a sponsor allows you to get your company on our website and name in front of hundreds of people the night of the cook off. And all sponsorship levels give you two complimentary tickets to our Chili dinner.
