<p>Hello Craig,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I just became aware of Ally, because of everything going online, but with no budget it looked like it might be redundant and there are things that are buit-in and free like the Accessibility Checker in M.S. Office and in Adobe Acrobat.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Just my thoughts,<br>
</p>
