Accessibility Statement
Last updated: October 17, 2025
Mad Tree Foundation, Inc. (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to ensuring that our website and digital content are accessible to everyone, including individuals with disabilities. We believe accessibility supports our mission of inclusion and community service, and we strive to maintain a website that is easy to navigate, understand, and interact with.
1. Our Commitment
We aim to provide an accessible digital experience for all visitors by following the principles of:
- Perceivable – Content can be presented in ways all users can perceive.
- Operable – Users can navigate and interact with content using a variety of devices and assistive technologies.
- Understandable – Information and user interface elements are clear and predictable.
- Robust – Content is compatible with current and future assistive technologies.
Our ongoing efforts are guided by the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA, developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).
2. Accessibility Features
We have implemented the following features across https://madtreefoundation.org:
- Logical heading structure and semantic HTML for clear screen-reader navigation
- Alternative text (alt text) for informative images and graphics
- Keyboard-accessible menus and forms
- Text color contrast that meets or exceeds WCAG 2.2 AA standards
- Descriptive link text for better context
- Resizable text and responsive layouts for mobile and desktop devices
- Captions or transcripts for video and audio content, where available
- Skip-to-content links to improve navigation for keyboard users
3. Ongoing Improvements
Accessibility is an ongoing effort. We regularly review our website using automated and manual testing tools (such as WAVE and Lighthouse) and apply updates as technology and guidelines evolve.
We also train our staff and volunteers to maintain accessible digital practices in our communications, documents, and media.
4. Third-Party Content
Some pages may include links to external websites or embedded third-party content (such as donation platforms, social-media posts, or maps). While we cannot control the accessibility of content provided by others, we encourage third-party vendors to follow accessibility best practices and welcome feedback about any barriers you encounter.
5. Feedback and Assistance
We welcome your feedback on the accessibility of our website and materials. If you experience difficulty accessing information or have suggestions for improvement, please contact us. We will respond promptly and work to provide the information in an accessible format.
