Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to familiarize you with the “Braille Teach” - interactive device with audio feedback to help learn Braille alphabet, a modern technological innovation that we as its creators believe your institution would find interesting.
Braille Teach is a device for visually impaired children and their family members, dedicated to allowing them a quick and efficient way of learning the Braille alphabet, making it an interactive and fun experience for all. This easy –to-use device currently supports 5 languages (English, Azerbaijani German, Russian, French and Ukrainian) and is eligible to be translated into other languages. It also includes 8 built-up games for children's development.
The Azerbaijan Ministry of Education fully supports the project and is actively using the device at local schools and centers for visually impaired children. The project has also had success abroad. A number of private and governmental schools as well as individuals are currently using Braille Teach in USA, Russia, Ukraine, Germany and Tajikistan.
Project founder and CEO Rashid Aliyev is a young entrepreneur and winner of a number of local and international competitions. The reasonable price and high quality allows the device to grow day by day.
We are planning to bring to market more than 50 000 devices for sale by the end of July, 2019.
Our mission is to bring innovations to life of the visually impaired children through technologies. Here is the link of the official site of Braille Teach. You can find a video with further information about the product as well as the project creators.
We kindly ask you to consider the information above and if you could not personally reply to this email please forward it to the responsible person. Also please, share this email with your friends or charity organizations who could be interested in this device.
Let’s help and motivate visually impaired children to learn Braille Alphabet!

Only 10% of them are Braille literate for next top 3 reasons:
School budgets cut
Most schools do not
have enough budget to
buy existing
tools/assistive devices
because of their high
cost
Technological
advancement
Technological solutions
are too expensive for most
schools or families.
Average market device to
teach cost $1000-$3000
