I urge everyone in the US to do this (unfortunately if you're not a US citizen you cannot vote).

 

I've known Sharron an the Knowbility team for many years and I know they will do an enormous amount of good to help others if they're awarded this money.

Greetings all,

I hope this is not an abuse of this list but I am asking for your support. 

The Inspire Award is the last push in the annual AARP Purpose Prize and could afford Knowbility an additional $10K prize. 

 

For those who may not know us, Knowbility is a nonprofit organization that has advocated, educated, and guided institutions for digital equity for more than 20 years. We help agencies and businesses improve tech access.  If you can take a few minutes to vote <https://challenges.aarp.org/inspireaward22/> , we may get more attention to this critically important issue. Thank you for considering!
