K-12 Student of the Month Program
About the program
Vispero’s Student of the Month Program is excited to feature K-12 students in the U.S. who are blind or low vision and have shown a conscientious commitment to their educational objectives.
Nominees must be students who are blind or low vision and who use technology from Vispero brands, including Freedom Scientific, Optelec, or Enhanced Vision, in pursuit of their educational goals.
A student can either self-nominate or be nominated by someone else. Any student under the age of 18 must have parental consent to participate. Every month a student will be selected as the Vispero Student of the Month. To accept the award, the student must provide a short video that includes:
- First name
- One way they use Vispero assistive technology for school
- Their favorite thing about the software (JAWS, ZoomText, or Fusion) or device (Braille display or electronic video magnifier)
The selected Vispero Student of the Month will receive a $300 Amazon gift card, and a five-year license of JAWS®, ZoomText®, or Fusion®. Also, their story will be featured by Vispero on our blog and social media: Twitter, Facebook, Mastodon, and Instagram.
In partnership with Computers for the Blind, each winner is eligible to receive a free, refurbished computer along with a free Home Annual license of JAWS or ZoomText. Together, Vispero and Computers for the Blind are empowering independence and bridging the digital divide.
