ππ LETβS GET LOUD FOR A CAUSE VERY CLOSE TO MY HEART! ππ
This year Iβm proudly supporting The Shepherd Centre, which supports children who are deaf or have hearing loss and their families.
This cause is particularly close to my heart because I am a CODA β Child of Deaf Adults. Growing up, Signed English and Auslan were initially my first languages, and communication has always been a huge part of my life.
From a young age, I learnt just how important it is that we find ways to communicate with one another. Whether that's through Auslan, spoken language, listening, visual communication or simply taking the time to understand how another person communicates β everyone deserves to be heard, understood and included. ππ€
Thatβs why supporting organisations like The Shepherd Centre means so much to me.
π― Iβve set my first fundraising goal at $250 and Iβve kick-started the donations myself!
If youβd like to help me reach β or hopefully smash β that first goal, you can donate here:
Donate to my Loud Shirt Day fundraiser
ππ Want to get involved?
If your school, workplace, community group or organisation would like to hold a Loud Shirt Day fundraiser, please send me a message. Iβd be more than happy to forward you the information and help spread the word.
Communication connects us. Inclusion matters. And every child deserves the opportunity to communicate and be understood. ππ€
Letβs get LOUD and make a difference! πππ
