Deafness is often referred to as the ‘invisible disability,’ leaving many deaf children isolated within hearing families who may not fully understand their needs.
VAANIDeaf Children’s Foundation was founded to address this gap, inspired by a 2002 national study that revealed the lack of family involvement in the education and upbringing of deaf children in India. The study emphasized the need for awareness, early intervention, and communication support for these children. Over the past 19 years, VAANI has worked to empower families, advocate for the rights of deaf children, and create lasting change through early identification, education, and community engagement. We have reached over 100,000 beneficiaries across India, including deaf children, their families, and professionals, working together to ensure a brighter future for the hearing-impaired community.
Your donation to VAANI Deaf Children’s Foundation will help us reach more deaf children and families across India. With your help, we can deliver customized educational intervention programs tailored to the unique learning needs of deaf children, enabling them to thrive academically and socially. Your support will fund early identification of hearing loss in newborns, skill-building initiatives that prepare deaf children for higher education and job opportunities, and comprehensive training for parents, teachers, and community professionals. Additionally, your contribution will enable us to provide nutritional supplements, outreach to underserved communities, and emotional and educational support for families, fostering a holistic approach to empowering deaf children. Every contribution enables us to expand our reach, empowering deaf children to overcome barriers, access quality education, and lead independent, fulfilling lives.

By reaching hearing affected children residing in rural landscape and in isolated corners of India, VAANI Deaf Children’s Foundation is imparting an extremely essential social service. The sincerity and creativity of their work is felt by everybody because of the transparency in their approach. The way they have adopted to COVID19 restrictions by immediately turning to online mode shows their never give up attitude. I am extremely happy the way they strive to keep the donor in the loop. All best wishes for success.
