I have volunteered at several studio locations over the course of my lifetime. I now have the good fortune to be employed here, and am able to do even more for this great organization. What makes it great are the volunteers, who give their time, talent and treasure recording textbooks for any student who learns differently. For 3 hours a week, these individuals create the materials that help students gain access to the education they deserve and to which they have a right. Some charities provide food, or clothing, or shelter - all good and necessary things; but Learning Ally, formerly Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic, gives people a future. I couldn't recommend it more highly.
