> The Blind Users Innovating and Leading Design (BUILD) program is a National Federation of the Blind database of blind users to test and evaluate the accessibility of products and services.

Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. Thank you for your commitment.
