About Deaf Action

Deaf Action is the aid and development arm of Deaf Ministries International, working to break the cycle of poverty and discrimination faced by the Deaf around the world.

Our 10 schools and dozens of employment projects across the developing world provide education and exciting economic possibilities for the Deaf in places where there are very limited education and employment opportunities for the Deaf. Operating in 21 countries around the world, these schools and projects help the Deaf to escape the cycle of poverty and make a positive contribution to the wider community.

As a registered Public Benevolent Institution, Deaf Action (ABN 81 692 219 423) has been endorsed in Australia as a Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR). Tax deductibility is available for donations over $2 to Deaf Action in Australia and to Deaf Ministries International in most other countries. All funds donated to Deaf Action are used to provide benevolent relief to Deaf individuals through the schools and projects supported by our work.

While Deaf Action’s work is motivated by our Christian beliefs, Deaf Action does not evangelise, nor do we discriminate against those who do not share our world view. Deaf Action works with Deaf individuals from all cultures and religions.
