STUDENTS
TEACHERS
What you can give them is
an education.
An education is the only door these children have to an optimistic future.
Deaf children especially have fewer opportunities in Haiti, including opportunities to learn. The Deaf School at the Northwest Haiti Christian Mission offers classes for deaf students which includes teaching them American Sign Language – as well as Haitian and French signs - to help them communicate and learn.
It also gives them a safe place where they can communicate with other deaf children and adults, and have a meal everyday.
