50/50 Groove Collaboration
Have you or someone you know ever been underestimated? Had your unique gifts gone unexpressed? Your dreams unrealized?
If so, consider this an invitation to help move the world forward in amazing ways. We believe that everyone has an innate right to create, work, and enjoy all fruits of their passions and capacities. To this end, we've launched a foundation!
As the President & CEO of I See Music Foundation, I would love for you all to join me in participating in our brand new 50/50 Groove Collaboration. Here is where we join forces to aid our blind audio engineers and producers in tech support as it pertains to the lack of accessibility in audio technology.
We at ISM Foundation see it incredibly important to launch a help desk program to keep blind users in audio tech working with the least amount of down time.
Imagine being stuck for days because of a button your screen reader can’t see
or myriad other issues that can arise.
Now, you’re waiting for sighted assistance,
which could take up to two weeks to obtain from a friend
or some tech support agent who may or may not
have the expertise to help a blind user.
As a blind engineer that makes me feel sad and helpless. Now, you and I have the chance to change this grim reality through funding the help desk. The ISMF’s help desk is located on the Be My Eyes app in the special partners section. Grateful grooves to Be My Eyes for servicing this amazing and talented community. We are incredibly thankful to partner with like minds. We thank you in advance for solving a hidden but growing problem in the blind community which affects the whole world.
We embrace the adage “Be like water,” emptying ourselves of internal and external clogs, stuck, expired ideas, approaches, and systems that inhibit the flow for the best and highest good of all.
With 10 years trailblazing in this lane, we’re kinetic in transforming the culture and moving humanity forward! Join us if you believe as we believe!
Your $50 investment towards the goal of $50,000 provides 2 hours of sighted tech support ($25/hr) through an accessibility help desk that accelerates troubleshooting from days to minutes. Activate your power grid by sharing this movement with one person (or more). Together we can ignite the first 9 months of continuous support. This campaign is abuzz through October 1, 2023 - day 1 of Blindness Awareness Month. Get in the groove by following the steps below!
