Do you know that over 26% of adults in the US live with a disability? That’s 61 million Americans. If you want to reach ALL your prospective supporters, advocates, and donors, you need to make sure you include everyone who is interested in furthering your mission. You cannot afford to create barriers to participation – even if unintentional.

When someone with a disability shows up at any of your digital properties, they should be able to learn, interact, sign up, and donate with ease. Learn about the fundamentals of digital accessibility and why and how your organization can do what it takes to ensure you are creating an opportunity for EVERYONE to give. From your website to your email and beyond, we will talk about the ways to increase access for all.
