Deaf History and Sign Language

Please help Jean to raise money for establishing a website, blogs, write books and to preserve our Deaf History and Sign Language. I just used a loan for a new desktop and paying back. Not enough income for this project. Why am I doing this? There are many people don't know about our Deaf culture, sign language and history in New Zealand. We want to remove the barriers and discriminate by other people that stopping us from doing anything, getting an excellent job while we do have skills, the lack of service such as phone call, no flashing fire alarm lights for us. We are raising our signs as our voice for our equal right.

So we want to hear what you think:

-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.4% ... It is complicated
