[Art_beyond_sight_learning_tools] Serious need of one or two line quote

[ElisabethAxel at aol.com]

It has been seriously hard for me to find funders willing to support AEB to 
support service agencies (museums, libraries, schools, scientific community) 
who then provide impact Services to reach the individual blind people. I 
submitted an application and met with a funder who clearly could be crucial to AEB.

The past years since 9/11 have been very hard for us. In fact in the past 
year I took a personal loan to continue and, as they say, "go for it," 
----working with an amazing group of Art Beyond Sight partners, AEB consultants and 
staff to put together programs, web designs and outreach in the way we-would if 
we'd won Lotto.

Over 10 yrs ago, AEB scaled back on its direct service to blind people so 
that we could help our field by always researching new techniques, technologies 
and getting them to our field at no cost or low cost.I have been working in 
this field since I was 23 and eeeeek -this year I'll be forty. How about an 
advance Birthday present?

I urgently need quotes from you telling me in just a couple of lines what 
you've told me over the years ....that what we do does helps our field and that 
how we do it is what you need 'cause we partnered with you in many cases so we 
had direct feedback as to what you needed- I need to prove +hat what we 
provide to you is done in the way you need and if at all at all possible around how 
many individuals, and if possible, the demographic or age breakdown of these 
individuals.
