Teaching deaf children



January is the start of the new school year here in South Africa ... and for many parents whose children attend our Kwa Thintwa School for the Deaf, it's a time of despair.

The annual boarding school fees have gone up to R5000 – approximately $660 or £400 – owing to the increased cost of food.

Children whose parents can't pay are not sent away ... the school first tries to find sponsorship for them, in order to give them a chance at life. But right now, 30 children need sponsors.deaf children

In the poor rural community around Kwa Thintwa, a child who is hearing impaired
is often regarded as stupid or inferior.

But at Kwa Thintwa, he or she can learn to communicate with others, prepare to write the National Matric examination and participate in sport, speech and drama, art and other school activities.

So you see, your kindness really does make all the difference! Please help a deaf child now ... by contributing towards the cost of boarding school fees.

You may never meet the child who is given a chance at life through your generosity ... but you will have the satisfaction of knowing that in your own way you have helped make this world a better place. God bless you.
