We are preparing to start Sign Language Club in primary schools in Lagos amongst other clubs in the school.
To facilitate knowledge of sign language among the youths of this generation (catch them young)
The hearing and speech impaired would have no more barrier in communication if their peers can communicate with them in the language they know.
This disability would be phased off at a time when the immediate and wider society can communicate with them.
It takes a little time to learn a language and it is cost effective.
We need support and partners for materials and funds to carry out this Idea/ changemaking program.

Hello Happy New Year. There is a challenge in the immediate and wider society by lack of Sign Language knowledge by people.
To break the barrier, young people should learn Sign language to include the hearing and speech impaired.

Encourage young people to learn sign language including you in any small way. It is a great positive change in our generation and future if we now can accommodate the speech and hearing impaired and bring them into the main stream of the society by communicating effectively with them. They can then work with us and do business with us

We empowered and graduated another eight youths with disabilities on the 14th of December 2017 . It was a day of joyful celebrations for both students, parents, well wishers and the Management Body of the Organisation. Support our efforts. Let us hear from you and don't encourage giving to keep them on the streets.
