Why I’m Asking for Your Support
As a Deaf entrepreneur from Austria, I’ve spent over a decade advocating for sign language inclusion and accessibility. Studying at Gallaudet is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to grow as a Deaf leader and business innovator.
However, as an international student, I do not qualify for U.S. or Austrian public financial aid. This leaves me with no choice but to raise the full amount myself.
Every donation — big or small — brings me one step closer to building a future that empowers the global Deaf community.
