get involved at your school

19 October 2012 is Loud Shirt Day and schools can participate by allowing students to "wear their support" and make a donation to the First Voice Centre in their state.

Loud Shirt Day is perfect to engage your school in a simple fundraiser. Use this opportunity to inform students how deaf children can be fully integrated into the school community... many kids don't realise that deaf children who learn to speak can attend mainstream schools and reach their full potential.

If 19 October 2012 is not convenient for your school, pick another date that suits, just let us know.
