All lessons will be streamed for free but participants who are willing and able are asked to donate to the #SignForSigns Fundraising Campaign.

It aims to raise funds for the Deaf students living allowances who are stranded in their dormitories, for FSL Learning Program faculty who are on no work no pay scheme, and for FSL Access Team for COVID-19 who render their services as media interpreters in daily news in major broadcast networks.

Proceeds will also fund indigent Deaf scholars who need to return to their respective provinces after the Extended Community Quarantine is lifted.

DLS-CSB’s online lessons begin on May 30. You may follow the  Dls-Csb School of Deaf Education and Applied Studies page for the Facebook Live session.

You may visit this site to donate. A minimum contribution of P350 will give you access to an FSL Learning Kit, which you can use to continue learning sign language at home.
