About Bedtime Donations

A NEW CHAPTER FOR INCLUSION

Blind children often lack access to stories, and one reason is that recording audiobooks requires time and resources. Bedtime Donations is here to change that. It’s an app developed by The Royal Society for Blind Children, U.K. (RSBC) to democratize audiobooks for children in the vision-impaired community worldwide.

To donate your bedtime story to blind children, all you need to do is download Bedtime Donations, choose a tale to tell, and read it out loud. The app will record every word you say and turn it into a free audiobook.

You can donate as many stories as you wish.

Now, the bedtime story you read to your child can be
heard by thousands of blind children.
