Greetings!
The goal of Computers for the Blind is to provide affordable, accessible
refurbished computers and training. We want to make sure that all have
access to technology and are confident in using it. Our laptops and desktops
are an affordable way for individuals with visual impairments to begin their
journey with technology. We provide a one-year license to JAWS or ZoomText
with every computer, as well as a year of tech-support.
We are pleased to announce that we have received grants that lower the cost
of our computers even more. This is possible with the generous funding from
the Communities Foundation of Texas. For eligible recipients, this grant
provides a discount of $75 off our base prices. This applies to both
desktops and laptops.
Also, we would like to announce our End of Year Sale! Until December 15th,
one of our selected upgrades can be added for free. The upgrades include the
following: Touchscreen upgrade for laptop, webcam upgrade for desktop, or a
wireless keyboard/mouse combo. Please see the attached flyer for more
details and restrictions. This is a great way to get a computer and an
upgrade that makes it easier to use.
We ask that you share the details of our discounts and sale with any
individuals that will benefit from using a computer! With your help we can
reach those with visual impairments who need access to technology, but are
otherwise restricted by the high costs. We also provide an "Introduction to
JAWS" training class, and we also have partnerships with organizations such
as World Services for the Blind to offer other training opportunities, so
that we can help anyone who needs help getting started. Feel free to share
our Pricing Guide, as well as our Sale flyer to any other organizations or
individuals who could benefit.
Don't hesitate to reply with any questions or comments that you may have!
Also, our Customer Service Representatives are always ready to answer
questions or help with computer orders. They can be reached at (214)
340-6328 option 1.
We wish you a great Holiday Season!
Thanks!

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back.
