Giving our Deaf children the opportunity to access education is very important to us. Through our Student Sponsorship Programme we offer support for transportation, meals and boarding to students enrolled in our JAD Schools.

This year we've partnered with NCB Jamaica to help make this a reality.

You can help too with your contribution via NCB online or in any NCB branch islandwide. #BlueRibbon2018 #JADStudentSponsorship #Vision2030 #EducationForAll
