The Organizer
inABLE.org was established in 2009 to address the urgent need to connect blind and low-vision students to the rest of the world by breaking down the barriers to communication, education and employment. The priority was the creation of a computer-assistive-technology program for blind and low-vision youth in Kenya to provide digital skills training to the disadvantaged youth.
