Give the gift of education for deaf children

For children like Maleda in Ethiopia, your gift can change everything

Born deaf, Maleda faces daily rejection and isolation. But there is hope—the Co-Action Deaf School offers her a place to learn, belong and thrive.

With your generous support, we can restore and strengthen this vital school and give children the future they deserve.

Built in 1985, the Co-Action Deaf School was a lifeline for deaf children in Ethiopia.

Now, after 40 years, the school itself is in crisis—with broken furniture, unsafe classrooms, deteriorating learning spaces and a lack of essential teaching resources.

Your support can provide the essentials such as:

• communication aids

• technology to assist in learning, and

• safe and inclusive spaces to play and develop.

Pope Leo XIV recently reflected that “for the Christian faith, the education of the poor is not a favour but a duty. Children have a right to knowledge as a fundamental requirement for the recognition of human dignity.” (Dilexi Te, 72)

These words capture the very heart of our mission. Through your compassionate support, you affirm that right — ensuring children like Maleda have the chance to learn, belong, and flourish with dignity.
