Dear Federationists,

Please help the Dayle McIntosh Center share the below AIRA opportunity with
as many individuals with vision loss as possible. The only requirements are
that individuals be 18 years of age, and live in the United States.

  You may have heard of a service called Aira, which provides peoplewith
visual disabilities access to visual information (their surroundings, signs,
etc.) through the use of a cell phone's video camera. A live, trained
operator is available 24/7 to provide this information in English and
Spanish. Aira's website has a more

Detailed description <https://aira.io/how-it-works> of their services.

The University of California, Irvine and Toyota North American Motors
(TNAM) are partnering to sponsor persons with vision disabilities a free,
500 minute, a month AIRAsubscription from October 2020, through August 2021.
The project  has allocated funds to provide 600 AIRA subscriptions to
interested individuals with visual disabilities. We have already filled 426
subscriptions of the 600 available and are seeking to provide the remaining
174 subscriptions to blind individuals who may benefit from Aira.

Please spread the word to your clients, members and associates. Those
interested have only to complete this

Google Form <https://forms.gle/Wg4MvJFDyz92unDP6>.

The form simply requests: First Name, Last Name, Email address, and Phone
number. The email address is optional (to be inclusive of people who may not
have one) but preferred.

Thank you for your support and sharing the news.

Best Regards,
