Yes. Deaf Blind Fund is a registered nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting children and youth living with hearing or vision loss. We work to provide education, skills training, assistive tools, and community support to help them reach their full potential.

What does "deafblind" mean?

Deafblindness is a unique and distinct disability. It is a combination of sight and hearing loss that affects a person's ability to communicate, access information, and get around. It is not necessarily a total loss of both senses; many people who are deafblind have some useful hearing or vision.

What is a Giving Fund, really?

It’s your personal charitable wallet. You set aside money now to meet your giving goals, get an immediate tax deduction, invest those funds so they can grow, and donate whenever you’re ready.

How is Deaf Blind Fund different from other organizations?

Our programs are tailored to improve education access, daily living skills, and long-term independence. Our support is holistic, person-centered, and designed to empower individuals to live life to the fullest.
