Subject: [UEB Contractions] NBP-Announce: Louis Braille Touch of Genius
	Prize for Innovation 
Message-ID: <012a01c7ca54$3826d0c0$4d64a8c0@nbp2.local>

I apologize for any double postings this might cause, but I thought you
all might know of interested applicants ...
 
 
 
National Braille Press is pleased to announce the Louis Braille Touch of
Genius Prize for Innovation is now open for applications. The Gibney
Family Foundation initiated the Touch of Genius prize as a tie-in to
NBP's recently published biography of Louis Braille to stimulate new
thinking in the area of tactile literacy.
 
The Louis Braille Touch of Genius Prize for Innovation will be granted
to an individual or group  of individuals who advances the cause of
tactile literacy for blind and deafblind people worldwide. Louis Braille
was an innovator-and this $20,000 award seeks to identify a similar
pacesetter and inspire future innovators.
