ETHIOPIA: Sponsor a Deaf Student

Visions Academy School for the Deaf

& VISIONS CENTER FOR THE DEAF (Hawassa, Ethiopia)

Please join us in sponsoring a student at our Visions Center for the Deaf or brand new Visions Academy - School for the Deaf, both of which are located in Hawassa, Ethiopia.

The Visions Academy School for the Deaf is the first and only deaf school in the country’s 5th largest city! Starting with Kindergarten, Grade 1, and Grade 2, we already have 50+ students attending who are now receiving a free education in formal Ethiopian Sign Language with the support they need to succeed!

In order to sustain these operations, as well as to support students who regularly attend our Visions Center for the Deaf and access a whole host of services there, we need sponsors for each of our students. All of the students listed below are still in need of a sponsor!

Please become a sponsor today by setting up a recurring contribution of just $30/month (or make a one-time annual donation of $360), and we will keep you informed of your student's progress over the next year! To sign up, simply click the button below. If you have a preference for which student you would like to sponsor, simply make a note of it in the subject line of your donation. Otherwise, we will randomly assign a student to you. Thank you so much! አመሰግናለሁ!

INDIA: Sponsor a University Scholar

Young people from poor, rural, low caste communities face incredible economic, gender, and socio-cultural challenges in pursuing higher education. In India, we work closely with exceptional young women (and a few young men) from these backgrounds in preparing them for college and helping them to realize their dreams. We have a new cohort of university scholars for the 2024-2025 academic cycle, and those listed below are still in need of a sponsor.
