Giving the Gift of Zambian Sign  Language 

A Mother's Heart Made Happy!

We learned today during our parent interview  that 18 yr old, not 13 yrs. old Collins has been Deaf from 5 months and he has a 15 yr old sister who is also deaf.  Neither of the two have ever attended  school due to no schools fees. Their mother is a widow  with four  other children, all hearing who attends school.

His mother happily said, she has seen a difference in him since coming to my class. He practices  writing his name repeatedly and counting at home.
She also confirmed that no one in the home speaks or knows English. I told but Collins has already started learning not only Sign Language. He is learning to write and read English!  As he demonstrated for her, she just beamed with a big bright smile. 

​I am grateful that Joseph and I have the opportunity to bring education, life and hope to these deaf children and their families. 
We will be looking for sponsors to help us to support these children's education. Your donation will be greatly appreciated. ​https://www.gofundme.com/f/debbie-giving-the-gift-of-zambian-sign-language
