Dear Students:
Today is the last day that you can apply for a chance to start your
college adventure with groundbreaking new technology. The National
Federation of the Blind is partnering with <https://aira.io/>Aira, a
company that uses smart glass technology, live agents, and artificial
intelligence to assist blind people in understanding and navigating
their environment. You might use it to help you explore your college
campus and new community, for example.
Through a partnership with Aira's Back to School Program, selected
blind college freshmen can receive a free nine-month subscription to
four hundred minutes of Aira services, as well as onboard training,
data, and the wearable glasses.
In order to apply for this opportunity:
* You must be legally blind
* You must be beginning college as a first year student in the
fall of 2017
To be considered for one of these subscriptions, please complete this
<https://aira.io/>short application online by Tuesday, August 15, 2017.
The National Federation of the Blind is dedicated to helping all
blind people, including blind students, live the lives they want. An
equal education is critical to success, and students play a key role
in creating a bright future for blind Americans. We are happy to
partner with Aira in this exciting opportunity.
Good luck, and all our best for the new school year!
Sincerely,
The National Federation of the Blind Communications Team
