History

The AIR Foundation was created to further the cause of universal accessibility to digital information throughout the world. The AIR Foundation is a 501-(c)3 corporation. All funds donated to The AIR Foundation are used in carrying out its mission of advocating, teaching, and delivering tools that promote accessibility to information as a fundamental human right.

A Minnesota corporation, The AIR Foundation embodies the egalitarian spirit that is the foundation of “Minnesota Nice.” Our core belief is that everyone is entitled to compete on a level playing field where a person with a so-called sensory “handicap” isn’t further handicapped by having to carry the burden of high-cost, barely functional technology as a penalty to any organization wishing to employ that person.

The AIR Foundation is completely separate from Serotek Corporation, with its own board of directors and Executive Director. Serotek Corporation is the first  corporate sponsor and has donated an exclusive license to The AIR Foundation to deliver its Internet-based accessibility application, SAToGo, free of charge to any person who requests its use, while connected to the Internet.
