Supporting Underprivileged Students

It is great to see that students from poorer countries are finally getting access to computer equipment and software through their schools and universities. Unfortunately, however, the level of support and access to high end software is very limited because of pricing and other economic factors. I feel that all students, irrespective of their economic situations, should have access to the very best software. Only by using the very best tools can these students reach their full creative potential. Their knowledge of such software will also be very helpful in them finding professional employment once they have completed their studies.

As a single person I may not be able to make much of an impact, but in some small way I'd like to assist these students in reaching their goals. I'm offering one free copy of Illustrate! each month to an underprivileged student. Who knows, maybe other large software companies will also follow suit.
