This is why we support the #DeafTalent movement and this is why we are working to create a #DeafTalent PSA where Deaf talent in front of and behind a the camera can show the world their skills. Our project will showcase popular Deaf professionals in entertainmnet fields such as: acting, directing, modeling, writing, dancing etc. connecting them and thier work with the public. Now we need your help! Donate to help the project: HERE.



In order to make a high quality product that does justice to the talent of it's 100% Deaf cast and crew we need to fundraise money to rent filming equipment, studios space, food for the cast and crew, flying out some of the name talent signed onto the project, and marketing to make sure this project gets in front of the people who make decisions in the industry.

VIDEO [CC] - This is a GoFundMe campaign to raise $25,000 to light up the Daily Moth and ensure that it has a permanent part in our community.



The Deaf host ASL radio show, Alex Abenchuchan: "The word, "Deaf" is our own brand of human. It's something that identifies and connects all of us. We can and do celebrate our culture and our community every day."



That's why Abenchuchan started the Daily Moth, an online show that delivers news in video using American Sign Language. He cover trending stories and Deaf topics with a twist of humor and Deaf culture in new shows posted Mondays through Thursdays.

To activate this feature, press the "CC" button.

Many look at "deaf" as a medical term, as a kind of disability, or use this word to imply someone is ignoring you or is closed off from the world. This causes the persisting myth that we need to be cured or that sign language is an inferior language. Feel free to donate Daily Moth - Donations Here.

The Daily Moth - The Deaf Host ASL Radio Show

Why does this happen? Because our community is constantly defined by those who aren't a part of the Deaf way of living. We are framed as a helpless group of people that needs help and therapy in order to be successful. And whatever few opportunities come our way, those with privilege take away.



How do we change this? We change this by taking back our own representation, by knowing what's going on in the world, especially events that directly impact our way of living. We change this by being inspired by those who blaze trails and by supporting those who are oppressed. The collective strength of our community is more than enough to blast through any barriers and build new platforms.

I'm asking you to partner with me in this campaign to raise $25,000 to keep the Daily Moth running for another year.

I'm asking every regular viewer of this show to donate whatever you can to light up the Daily Moth and keep the shows coming in 2016!



This figure is based on operating costs and the minimum salary necessary for me to remain independent and committed to bringing daily shows to you. I will pursue advertisements and other revenue opportunities, but I can't start doing that without the foundation of your support. Donations Here



Partner with the Moth today and share this campaign with all of your family and friends. Thank you for all of your support. To donate and for more information, go to https://gofundme.com/dailymoth and http://dailymoth.com. Stay with the light!

VIDEO [CC] - GoFundMe campaign "Deaf Perspective" featuring Lauren Hostovsky: Charity to build a Deaf school in Monze, Zambia.

Lauren Hostovsky has a dream: she wants the Deaf students in Monze, Zambia to go to a school of their own. Watch this week’s episode of Deaf Perspective and check out her fundraising page, https://gofundme.com/deafschoolzambia.

Lauren Hostovsky: As you may or may not know, only two percent of Deaf people worldwide have access to education in sign language. How are Deaf children supposed to learn?



Many Deaf and Hard of Hearing children the world over do not have access to education, often because they are viewed as mentally challenged, unimportant, mute. This appeal is about making the world a better and safer place for Deaf children everywhere, but specifically in a very special place called Monze, Zambia.



In the village of Monze, Zambia, we are trying to build a school for over 60 Deaf and Hard of Hearing children whose parents and guardians have no resources to give them the proper education, health care and adequate living conditions needed to ensure their survival. We want to build a school in which to instruct and house these children, but also to create the kinds of self-sustaining projects that will be necessary to keep the school up and running once it has been constructed.



The Zambian government does not care about these children, and their parents are often uneducated and helpless. There is currently only one teacher working with the children of Monze, Zambia. Her name is Lisa Zahra, and she has been working tirelessly to provide appropriate education and protection for these Deaf and Hard of Hearing children.



Right now we need $3000 to help cover the cost of renting a classroom for one year for these children. Please help to raise the money needed to provide a classroom and instructional supplies and food for these children for the current school year... Read More: https://gofundme.com/deafschoolzambia
