Would you add to a crowdfunding campaign for a braille transcription of "Mohammad: His Life Based on Earliest Sources," by Martin Lings?

Fundraising goal is $9K. Donations >$50 get a copy of the BRF file.

The braille will be given to the copyright holder of the print book for addition to their catalog.

Future projects include other religious literature fundamental to understanding the world's faith centers. #crowdfunding #braille #Islam #religion #Christianity #Judaism #MarrakeshTreaty
