It would be great if we come up with even small small contributions.
This is going to be a unique concept and the vision is to have so many
blind IT professionals that seeing one around us should not be a
surprise, like happens when people see me.
It is a shame that people still get amazed to see me doing programming
or even using computer as a totally blind person.
I here by urge every one to contribute what ever little you can to my
campaign.
Happy hacking.

Funds crunch blurs his vision for computer programmers
Regarded as a hero of India’s free software movement by none other
than Richard Stallman, Mumbai’s blind computer programmer Krushnakant
Mane is currently knocking on the doors for funds to promote his
course dedicated to develop more IT professionals from
visually-challenged students.
“Computer programming needs ideas and not eyes. I am not looking for
sympathy because I am blind. I am seeking technology for everyone,
which includes the blind community as well,” Mr. Mane told The Hindu .
