Donate to DeafLEAD

DeafLEAD was created to determine and facilitate meeting the needs of the Deaf communities in Missouri. For 28 years, we have been able to be there for our clients, because our community has been there for us. 

Daily, we have advocates, social workers and crisis counselors making Mid-Missouri a safer and more inclusive place to live, and empowering our Deaf neighbors to continue to call this area home. 

With budget cuts to state and federal grants that fund our direct services for the communities, we need your support more than ever.

Here at DeafLEAD, your generous donation goes a long way.

You will receive donation receipts for tax write offs, and we are grateful for any amount you can give.

Contributions in ANY amount to DeafLEAD can be lifesaving for Deaf victims attempting to leave an abusive environment.

May help someone afford a tank of gas to leave an abusive environment.
May help someone buy a bus ticket to a safer place, or a motel stay while action-planning next steps.

All DeafLEAD’s services are free to the individuals we serve. Donations to DeafLEAD go towards meeting the safety needs of our clients. Donations will go towards our general services fund unless otherwise specified. Please contact us if you would like to donate to a specific cause.
