Our Signs for Hope ASL-Immersion Family Retreat for hearing families who have adopted children with deafness is truly unique!
This is our 2nd year to offer this ASL-rich experience specifically for helping the hearing families of deaf children learn better how to communicate with their adopted children via sign language and who better to share with them than our Deaf volunteer staff?
MudLOVE was born in 2009, the same year as Signs for Hope, and their desire to provide clean water for those in Africa in great need was their motivation. Today, every product purchased at MudLOVE provides one week of clean water to someone who needs it in The Central African Republic (www.waterforgood.org) AND it helps Signs for Hope raise funds to host our annual family retreat, held May 31st - June 4th.
This campaign is a double-win! Your purchase supports 1) clean water for those in need and 2) ASL-immersion for hearing families in need.
Each mug is hand-thrown with love by artisans at MudLOVE!

The cost for our family retreat runs over $10,000, each year. We desire to provide $100 scholarships for each Deaf attendee and we cook and/or provide 4 meals for each attendee to help keep our families' and volunteers costs low. In addition, we provide a family retreat t-shirt for each attendee. We are seeking to raise $1,500 through this campaign and we are well on our way with 38%.
