Thank you Monash Lions (District 201V5)


Hueyify would like to thank the Monash Lions for inviting us as guest speakers to attend their AGM last night followed by a wonderful dinner gathering afterwards with their club. Everyone was extremely warm and friendly and made us truly feel welcome and at home.

During the AGM we had the opportunity to share the Hueyify project, our personal journey and vision for the future with the Monash Lions club. We are also thankful for the donation received towards the Hueyify project. Bootstrapping the Hueyify project has been extremely challenging and we are grateful for their support and generosity.

The Monash Lions club will provide photos and the details from last night via a media press release and publishing through their community networks.

Warm heartfelt thanks to the Monash Lions for being a part of and sharing the Hueyify journey.

Leo Club of Knox – Trivia Night 2015 for Leo and Lions


Earlier in the week myself and my family was invited to attend to the Trivia Night hosted by the Leo Club of Knox as a guest member held at the Bayswater Senior Citizens Centre last night (Saturday 30th of May).

This gave an opportunity for us to present Hueyify to all the Leo and Lions in attendance. There were other Lion Clubs in attendance from Rowville, Heathmont, Wantirna and others making an audience of about 190 people.

I must say the Club made us feel very welcome last night including everyone who sat on our table who formed our team for the trivia night. It was a fun night even though I was terrible at Trivia. Thankfully my daughter knew some of the answers to make up for my shortfall  - good job Elleleen!

About halfway through the night Huey and myself stood in front of the audience and presented a little about Hueyify, why Hueyify was formed, a little about what we are trying to achieve, how we wish to help others and our vision for moving forward to make a difference to the world. We ended with playing a short informative video showing what Hueyify has to offer.

After the presentation Srisa the Leo Club of Knox President presented a donation cheque towards Hueyify and the work we are doing. We are grateful for the donation and appreciative for their support. Bootstrapping the Hueyify project and constantly seeking funding is the most difficult challenge we are facing and am appreciative for any help. Donations will be reflected in our donations link where donations can be made: https://www.hueyify.com/donate

Some photos from the night:

Local News about Hueyify - Published in the Leader Community Newspaper

It seems we got published into the local news paper. I didn't think it would appear into the newspaper for a few more weeks yet. However, my daughter Elleleen came and told me her friend had PM-ed her telling her she already read the story in her newspaper. We haven't received our copy yet but that didn't stop us from reading it online.

Donations supporting Hueyify

I want to say thank you to everyone who has donated to http://www.hueyify.com/ cause and believing in what we are trying to achieve.

Your donation helps cover the expenses we are incurring to realise the project to help the blind and Autism people to more easily use the Internet for free regardless of location. Every bit helps!

If you have not yet had a chance to donate to support our cause then we will appreciate your donation. Why not forgo for a cuppa for a day and donate the proceeds to a worthy cause?

Kickstarting the Hueyify Fundraising Campaign

It has been a very hectic preparing to kick off for the Hueyify fundraising campaign. It has been a long time coming however we wanted to be sure that the entire Hueyify concept works before sharing the story with you. We've already done the hard work researching, investigating, designing and proving that the concept is viable. This includes producing a small software program to validate the concept in practice. Thus, the Hueyify Project had started long ago...

What is the Hueyify Project?

The Hueyify project is a project dedicated to making the Internet more user-friendly and is based on a blind boy's vision on how the Internet could be. It is free product and service for those who are legally blind / blind or has Autism regardless of their location. We believe there is a void in this area and our cause is dedicated to helping those who are blind or have learning differences or has Autism.

Who is Huey?

Hueyify is is based on a blind boy's vision on how the Internet can be. The boy's name is Huey. I am his father and also an experienced software engineer who is inspired by his Huey's idea and driving the project to make it a reality.

The Hueyify Story?

Like all projects they have a story. Our project isn't any different. I guess it would be fair to say the project resulted out of frustration when mixing blindness together with the Internet. You can read Our Story at the official Hueyify website.

It would be greatly appreciative if you can spare a few moments to read our story and share the story with your family members and friends as well as donate to support our cause. We currently need funding to complete the project. We need your help to make it happen.
