The DKM Gift Card Fundraiser is back by popular demand, and the DKM First-Timers Committee is heeding the call. We are asking that each ACB member support the DKM First-Timers Program while considering our purpose of broadening awareness of the huge impact made by our founding father, Durward K. McDaniel. His unwavering commitment and perseverance created a path for more and more individuals who are blind or visually impaired to learn of his lasting legacy, extending nearly 6 decades. Each year, DKM First-Timers follow in his footsteps as they serve on the local, state and national levels. Partner with us as we take steps to generate funds and lasting memories!
A donation of $5 gets your name in the appreciation drawing one time. For each $10 donation, you receive a bonus entry. For example, $10, 3 entries; $20, 6 entries; $30, 9 entries. Those donating $100 or more will be honored as Elite DKM Partners during the DKM First-Timers Reception on Wednesday, July 4th beginning at 5:30 p.m. Your name and contact information serve as your ticket. You don’t have to be present to win. Winners not in attendance will be notified following the DKM First-Timers Reception. Gift cards/gift certificates that you can take home with you in July include, but are not limited to, the following: ACB Mini Mall gift certificates, Amazon, MasterCard, Visa, Target, Starbucks, and other restaurants and department stores.
Make your donations at the ACB Marketplace and the ACB Mini Mall in St. Louis. Or, if you can’t make it to convention, you can reach the ACB Mini Mall from home by dialing 1-877-630-7190. Join us as we greet the 2018 DKM First-Timers and come together for the 2018 DKM First-Timers Reunion. Be sure to add us into your convention pre-registration plans. Your presence will make all the difference!
