Crowdfunding can create a tech training center to teach young adults with disabilities how to create apps & websites at no cost to them.

Dickinson, TX -- (SBWire) -- 12/19/2014 --As a retired special education high school teacher and current mobile application and website developer, Mike File identified a unique opportunity to connect adults with disabilities to a life-changing opportunity by which they can achieve higher goals and succeed in life.

To this end, Mr. File wants to create a technology incubator to help young adults with disabilities learn to develop mobile applications and websites without the financial worry of paying for the classes they would be taking. His target students are those who were very high functioning in high school, but due to lack of ability to access the curriculum, or their social skills, their school was not able to give them a proper preparation for their post-secondary education, they were not able to get into college to continue their education.

Drawing on his vast sets of skills in education and mobile app development, he hopes to leverage all of his professional experience to expand the technology training center he launched after retiring from the school system to provide classes for special young people valuable technology skills for a productive and successful career either as freelancers or employees.

Crowdfunding is sought to allow Mr. File to rent the additional space he needs as well as remodel that space for the classes. Funds will also be used to purchase furniture, computers and teaching materials and cover related costs enabling the students to hit the ground running –without a penny from any student's pocket. The crowdfunding goal also allows for the operations budget for the first year – starting with the first class planned to begin on March 3rd, 2015.

This crowdfunding campaign ends January 16, 2015.

About Mike File
After spending 16 years as a special ed teacher on a high school campus, his first experience with an iPad in 210 led him on a journey of discovery to professional reinvention as a mobile app developer running his own company. At present he has 20 apps in the App Store for iPhones and iPads, 6 apps in Google Play for Android Devices, and 5 Apps in the Windows Store for Windows 8 devices. Retiring from teaching at the end of school year in 2014, he found himself launching The Tech Lounge, a technology training center, teaching classes on how to use mobile devices. Although he left teaching he didn't leave his students behind; staying in touch with them he learned of all the difficulties they face with their careers. This discovery inspired him to pursue his latest dream; being able to provide these former students the skills, and equipment to have careers as web application developers.
