• Help with software development
• Buy the parts or donate used equipment, and help a blind kid build his or her own talking computer.
• Buy a talking computer and give it to a blind kid.
• Introduce us to a wealthy individual, foundation, or government agency that wants to assist the blind in their education, social inclusion, or employment prospects. Even though we prefer e-mail and dislike all types of social networks, if necessary and unavoidable, you can introduce us using LinkedIn.
• Sponsor one of our courses or computer-building workshops.
