Save Summer program for Deaf kids!!
Donation protected
See what last years Program looked like for these kids!!!
Everyone meet my daughter Alyssa. She had a rough start to life, she was born weighing 3 pounds full term and entered this world not on an even playing field.
She entered the foster care system when she 20 months old and I adopted her and her brother and sister.
She stubbornly did not start speaking untill she was 4 when we discovered she was deaf in her right ear. Since then we have been on a path to righting her significant delays.
One of the great resources that was available to her was the Texas school for the Deaf Summer program, this program provides an educationally stimulating summer program, that is tailored to the specific needs of these children.
Unfortunately the school did not receive enough funding from the state to run this essential program this summer.
We will need to move fast to be able to raise these funds as summer is not far away.
This program in 12 short days changes my daughter every year for the better. She comes home more confident and displays skills she did not have before going to camp.
I have reasonable means to be able to find and pay for another summer camp for my daughter, I would pay more for her to attend this camp. Unfortunately I do not feel I will find another camp that so sepcifically meets her needs an the needs of her peers.
If this campaign in unsuccessful all money will be donated to helping provide children who need hearing aids with them.
