Thank you for considering supporting our mission to transform lives of children who are deaf or

hard of hearing, teaching them to listen, speak, and learn through:

• proven spoken language and cognitive development curriculum

• family-centered education

• innovative technology

We are a California 501(c)3 nonprofit corporation that has been serving children who are deaf

or hard of hearing for 55 years.

Our intensive education and therapy program teaches listening and spoken language to these

children ages 0 - 6 so they can close the gap with hearing peers and succeed in mainstream

education by the first grade.

A child who misses this window of neurological development will probably spend his or her

school days in special education classes, falling progressively further behind, which is the

outcome for up to 90% of children who are deaf or hard of hearing.

We are holding our annual fundraiser, themed “Hear We Go!” on November 5, at the Westin

SFO. Your donation will be used for scholarships, enabling children to attend the school whose

families otherwise could not afford it.

Your generosity will be noticed! Donated items will be viewed and bid on during our silent

auction the week leading up to November 5. Sponsorship support will be recognized by social

media acknowledgement, signage at the event, and/or program placement.

We hope to welcome you as a supporter of our special community.

Sincerely yours,

Bill Doyle

Executive Director
