At Magicman, we take pride in our craft but even more so in our commitment to our people. We firmly believe that a company is only as strong as its team, and part of that strength comes from supporting one another in times of need. This belief was recently exemplified through a heartfelt story involving one of our technicians, Maciej, and his ten-year-old daughter, Zuzanna.
A Father’s Appeal
Maciej is a valued member of the Magicman family known for his dedication and professionalism. But beyond work, he faces a personal challenge as a father to Zuzanna, who is registered as vision impaired and blind. Zuzanna is a bright, determined young girl who excels at school, thanks in part to the specialised tools and resources provided there. However, at home, she lacked access to the same equipment, which limited her ability to study and read comfortably.
Maciej reached out to our CEO with a heartfelt message. In it, he explained the difficulty of securing funding for the equipment his daughter needed—a specialised device called the i-loview 16 Full HD Reader, designed for vision-impaired individuals. While he had sought assistance from charitable foundations, the waiting time for funding stretched to years. Maciej asked if the company could help him purchase the device, even offering to repay the cost through a payment plan.
Rising to the Occasion
Moved by Maciej’s courage in reaching out and inspired by Zuzanna’s resilience, our CEO responded with immediate support. At Magicman, we see our team as a family; this was a moment to put that ethos into action. We enabled Maciej to purchase the i-loview 16 Reader through a term loan covering 50% of the cost, with the remaining 50% provided as a company gift.
The result? Zuzanna now has the tools she needs to thrive at school and at home. Her confidence has soared, and Maciej no longer has to shoulder the financial burden alone. Stories like this remind us why we do what we do—not just in our work, but in our commitment to making a difference.
The Bigger Picture: Why Charity Matters
While we were honoured to assist Maciej and Zuzanna directly, their story underscores a larger issue: the need for robust funding and resources for charities supporting individuals with disabilities. Organisations working to provide essential equipment for vision-impaired children play a critical role, but they are often stretched thin. Long waiting times, like those Maciej encountered, are a stark reminder of these charities’ challenges.
At Magicman, we are proud to support our staff and the causes that matter to them. We encourage everyone reading this to consider contributing to charities that provide life-changing support to individuals like Zuzanna. Whether through donations, volunteering, or raising awareness, every effort counts.
A Bright Future
Today, Zuzanna’s future looks brighter, thanks to a collaborative effort between her father’s determination, the support of Magicman, and the innovative technology now at her fingertips. This is more than just a success story; it’s a testament to the power of community and compassion.
As we reflect on this journey, we’re reminded of the importance of standing by our team and giving back when it matters most. To Maciej and Zuzanna, thank you for allowing us to be part of your story. To our readers, we hope this inspires you to champion causes that make a difference. Together, we can create a world where no one faces challenges like these alone.
