SUSTAINABILITY GUIDE ON INK AND BRAILLE

“The only thing worse than not having sight is not having vision”.
Hellen Keller
Why on ink and braille?
We seek for the integration and coexistence between people through learning. This guide will allow for people with vision impairment to read with their hands through braille and at the same time, for people without this disability to read it. In this way, they complement each other.
What’s the campaign about?
The main goal of this campaign is to raise funds so we can create a Guide for Sustainability on ink and braille so everyone is able to access it. Including people with some form of vision impairment or blindness. This guide will be practical and easy to use. It will include a set of different actions that anyone can practice in their daily life that will help us reach a sustainable development.
*Note: The guide will be made until we reach our goal of collecting $600 thousand Mexican pesos, which is the amount we need in order to create it and make it reach people with vision disabilities through different stages of distribution.
