Stephanie statement on a fund blog site...
I am here to raise funds for ESD (Evangelical School for the Deaf). AND to inspire the Deaf community in Puerto Rico.
My volunteers & I plan to travel to a Deaf school in Puerto Rico to raise Deaf Awareness & Culture. We will be interacting with Deaf Puerto Ricans within the Deaf Community. We hope by sharing our personal stories of accomplishments, we hope to inspire them to believe that they can aspire to achieve anything they dream! My mother is hearing, Puerto Rican, and a perfect role model for the hearing parents of Deaf children. She is fluent in English, Spanish and American Sign Language. My mother will be educating and inspiring families on building relationships and better communication with their deaf child through lectures and presentations.
Would you kindly consider making a small donation for the Deaf community in Puerto Rico? Our goal and purpose is to encourage a better education system and a better Deaf awareness so that we can ensure a better future for every child within the Deaf communities of Puerto Rico! Nothing is too small. $5 can make a huge difference in other’s life. ...Read more details at http://www.gofundme.com/fundesd.

Switched at Birth Actress Asks Community To Help Funds For Deaf Children
VIDEO [ASL] - Switched at Birth actress asks community to help raise funds for ESD (Evangelical School for the Deaf) for a better future. An important message from her heart for the Deaf community.

Look at USA, already have a several Deaf organizations, events, clubs, sports, etc. A strong Deaf community which is close knit. Many Deaf Americans are proud for who they are, socializing with Deaf/HOH people often, and supportive each other. What about Puerto Rico? Where is that? Secondly, less than 5% Hearing families with Deaf child who can communicate in sign language in Puerto Rico (Documented by David and Marsha.) Can you believe that? 2013?
Deaf schools and mainstreamed schools are in need to improve education system for the Deaf children. I asked a teacher about the Deaf children, she mentioned that most Deaf children have no self esteem or no role models to look up at. They need to grow their self esteem to love themselves. They need to have a role model to look up at so they can achieve anything they dream.
My volunteers & I are looking forward to visiting Puerto Rico on this Fall. We will be interacting with Deaf Puerto Ricans within the Deaf Community. We hope by sharing our personal stories of accomplishments, we hope to inspire them to believe that they can aspire to achieve anything they dream!

Break The Silence Run: Stop Deaf Child Sexual Abuse
VIDEO: CEBU CITY, PHILIPPINES - Gualandi Volunteer Service Programme, Inc (GVSP) continues its mission for the Deaf community to live in a deaf-inclusive society. Established in 2005, the non-stock, non-profit organization has been working with volunteers in projects for and with the Deaf community.
Deaf children and women are vulnerable to abuse and exploitation. In a study conducted by the Philippine Deaf Resource Center, it was revealed that 65-70 percent of Deaf boys and girls are being molested. The large amount of cases continues to rise and remains concealed. However, the Deaf community receives little attention.
In an effort to raise awareness on putting a stop to the increasing number of cases of sexual abuse of Deaf children and women, the five-year program Break the Silence Child Sexual Abuse Prevention Network Project was started by GVSP under the guidance of Stairway Foundation, Inc. It focuses on abuse prevention, identification and response and advocacy both in the hearing and Deaf community through different projects set in agencies, schools and communities.
The sense of urgency on this issue also paved the way in the organization of a run for a cause event by GVSP entitled Break the Silence Run: Stop Deaf Child Sexual Abuse. It is set to happen on April 21, 2013, Sunday, 5:30 a.m. at Ayala Center Cebu Terraces, Cebu Business Park.
There will be four categories: the regular 4K, 8K and 16K and a separate category for Persons with Disabilities (wheelchair, blind and deaf). ...READ MORE: http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/story/300871/cbb/break-the-silence-run-stop-deaf-child-sexual-abuse
