Review for Aftersight, Boulder, CO, USA
I have been involved with this organization for over 10 years. I began volunteering while I was in college and for the past 3 years have been a member of the AINC Board of Directors. AINC's committed staff and incredible volunteers all have a dedication that I have not seen in any other place that I volunteer. When the digital changeover was happening last year not many organizations saw the effect that was going to have on broadcasting information like this. They sought out, designed, engineered, and distributed new receiver boxes BEFORE THE CHANGE so that people who were not able to access the visual only menus weren't left out. They also lend their programming and technology expertise to other states so that listeners around the nation can be connected to the world that is around them. They are a forward-thinking non-profit dedicated to not just the people the serve but the big vision of providing information access to people who are visually impaired.

I have volunteered and seen the amazing community that has grown. I believe strongly in literacy, technology, and that everyone - no matter where you live, no matter how you see- has a right to be connected. The ability to have access to the news to make informed decisions is a key element of any community. Audio Information Network does that.
