The interest from the monies generated is used for AFMS special projects, such as, junior badges, judges training, digitizing of slide programs; just to name a few. The AFMS Convention will be held in Raleigh, North Carolina. The Endowment Fund winners will be announced at the banquet on Saturday evening. You do not need to be present to win your prize although it would be nice to have your company. However you do need to purchase your tickets to be a possible winner! If for some reason you do not want to support the Fund by purchasing tickets, then please think about donating an item. This year I am hoping to receive at least 30 items each with a monetary value of $75.00 and no more than five (5) pounds. To date, I have received the following donations: 3515 E. 88th St. Tulsa OK 74137-2602 4680 Wisteria St Dallas, TX 75211 P.O.
