But when the founder of the company met Haines, Ryan Perez realized an opportunity to use his skills to help people with physical and mental challenges with their businesses.

“We were always talking about doing something for people with disabilities but we didn’t know what we were going to do, so we invented this whole initiative, pretty much around Michael,” Ryan Perez, founder of Bow Tie Kreative said.

For every website the tech company sells, they donate a free website to an entrepreneur with a disability.

“If you know anyone who has a mental or physical disability that wants to become an entrepreneur or needs help to get started in the right direction, definitely check out our website and fill out our online form and we’ll get in contact with you,” Perez said.
