Dear Victor,
I agree with you and Reginald that an additional few days until the end of the
week to provide everyone opportunity to regularize their status is welcome.
It is my hope that those who have been unable to settle thus far, will do so by
the weeks end.
Thanks and best regards
Jimmy Gichuhi

Hi Victor
It is always nice to be considerate. Nevertheless, a notice had earlier been
issued indicating an end of year 2018 as deadline, and it is just that the
implementation was delayed. Of course it could be further delayed to end of the
week.
Best Regards
Oduor

Dear Jimmy:** To leave the list, click on the following link:-
I am in full agreement with the intended measure. I however respectfully
opine that a notice that will ensure everyone has had time to check their
mail and take appropriate remedial action needs to be a little longer—say by
end of the week. I accordingly humbly suggest a revision of the notice.

Good morning friends,
I trust you are all well, and wish you prosperity this year.
I regret to inform all persons on this mailing list who are not paid up
members of Sopvid, that I have the unpleasant task of removing you from our
mailing list within the next twenty four [24] hours. This follows the
repeated calls I made to the list regarding regularizing our status by way
of paying up the Kshs. 3,600 for those who participated in Sopvid affairs
prior to 2015, and Kshs. 1,700 for those who joined last year. This very
burdensome decision was arrived at by the Sopvid committee and I was tasked
to conduct the removals by end last year.
I trust we all appreciate the challenges the society faces, given the
various expenses that need to be met, and members’ commitments are helpful
in this regard.
Please note that the door is still open and that those who are not on board
yet, to settle their obligation, and where they feel they are somewhat
constrained, we can work out a reasonable plan to accommodate this, while at
the same time, ensuring we fully meet the society’s membership requirements.
Therefore please feel free to contact me and we will do what we can to
ensure you remain part of Sopvid. We do not want to lose you, as we believe
each and every one of you is an important part of us, and is an important
contributor to our wellbeing.
Our bank account details to which you should make payment are as follows:
Bank: Kenya Commercial Bank [KCB]
Account name: Society Of Professionals with Visual Disabilities [SOPVID]
Account number: 1177148765
Paybill no.: 522522
Once again, those of us who have not made any payment yet, please proceed
and do so, send me the notification you’ll receive from KCB, and we will
immediately re-instate your e-mail address on the Sopvid listserv.
Those of you who have already made their 2015/2018 contributions please
ensure you make your 2019 settlement in order to help ease Sopvid operations
this year.
In the meantime, I wish you all a successful year and let’s work towards
remaining together in Sopvid.
Thanks and best regards
Jimmy Gichuhi
