I’m working on behalf of Laura Legendary, a small business owner who has launched a crowd funding campaign. She has designed a line of jewelry and accessories embossed in Braille, and I thought you might like to check it out. Her campaign page link is:
https://igg.me/at/ElegantInsights. As a personal note, I have contributed to this campaign, and I would like to encourage you to
support an entrepreneur who is blind, as I have done.. If making a direct contribution is not an option, then please like and share this message with your friends and colleagues. To read her personal testimony, please visit http://wp.me/p6U5Ac-bR . Your help is most appreciated. Let’s make it happen before the campaign closes on April 10th.

Brass level,$10: A hearty handshake and my undying gratitude. Check the sofa cushions for me, would you?

Silver level, $50: Choose a custom embossed military-style dog tag necklace or key tag, available in brass, copper, or stainless steel.

BTW, these tags are a great giveaway or fundraiser at conferences or company events. Have a blindness-related business or non-profit? We can brand you in Braille!

We’ll emboss a special name or sweet affirmation on the heart, such as “I love you,” or a special date in Grade 2 Braille. Want something more gender-neutral? You can choose our super cool Techlace. It’s a necklace, it’s a bit of tech, it’s the Techlace. All stainless steel, a heavy chain connected with a toggle clasp, featuring a removable flash drive and attached mini tag.
