Dear Mike,

We can’t thank you enough for the 15 laptops that you donated to the Blue Ridge Independent Living Center (BRILC). We understand that these laptops came to us through the VA STAR program.

As you know, BRILC assists individuals with disabilities to be independent. Unfortunately, individuals with disabilities remain some of society’s most disenfranchised. People with disabilities have very little discretionary money to use to purchase technology. Providing these laptops to individuals with disabilities will help to close the digital divide.

Thank you again. We look forward to working with you in the future.

Sincerely,

Karen M. Karney, MPA

Executive Director
