what's our action plan?

Our fundraising is primarily through word of mouth (initially from friends and family and informal gatherings.)  In the future, as our accomplishments grow and as we learn more about the needs of children who benefit from cochlear implantation, we expect to apply for grants from institutions and other charities. 

As for distribution, the money we raise is distributed through grant making with donor agreements primarily to institutions, foundations, hospitals and charities. 

Our Mission focuses on the children who are deaf or hard of hearing. Often this involves cochlear implantation surgery.  The surgical part  of the process is a medical matter and outside the scope of our activities. We begin our activities afterwards with education and support  That is when we see the most care being needed and when the  child literally needs to be taught how to hear, what to hear, how to process the sounds, how to speak and how to interact with peers all of  which enables the child to function seamlessly in the mainstream.  And just as urgent is our Mission to assist caregivers during the journey by educating them, with support sessions and the like.  There are numerous studies that show that these activities are quite positive.
