Woman who is visually impaired is needing an iPad to get connected online

This woman is currently experiencing domestic violence and is in a very vulnerable state. She has only 5% vision and so getting online has proven very difficult and daunting to her. She is looking forward to receiving some support through the project on how to use her device meaningfully and learn accessibility features.

The past isolations and restrictions due to COVID have made her feel quite disconnected from her family and support network. A device will help her reconnect and will also allow her to access essential online health information and resources, as well as keep up to dote regarding disasters.
