Giving the Gift of Zambian Sign  Language 

15 year-old Deaf Boy Never Learned Any Language

Good evening everyone. We are slowly starting to cook with oil. Today, among Joseph's busy schedule, we managed to visit the homes of deaf children who are without language. Here is a quick excerpt of a 15 yr old child born deaf and has never learned any language or attended school. Although he has not learned to speak with his hands yet, look at how talented he is with his hands in creating detailed toys from old oil drums and building braii (little cooking grills). Joseph and ​I will soon start teaching him and other kids like him  in Fisenge area. 
​David’s parents are piece workers. They are grateful to be discovered by Joseph’s organization, Zambia Deaf Vision.  We are establishing a Sponsorship program for vulnerable deaf children like David. Help me to find sponsors to help this young boy and others like him to attend Zambia Deaf Vision's Resource Training Center to start their education by first learning Zambian Sign Language.

It's heartbreaking that a 15-year-old born deaf has never learned to communicate. Thanks for all you're doing, Debbie!
