Our goal is to inspire at least 25 people in 2025 to become Champions of Deaf Organizations, giving monthly at a level that is comfortable and meaningful to you.
Monthly giving is one of the simplest, most critical ways to sustain the work of nonprofits, including ours. When you give regularly, you help ensure deaf organizations have access to the resources they need to support our deaf communities.
Sasha is a brown woman with brown wavy hair, wearing glasses and a red shirt with white DOF logo. Avi is a white woman with brown wavy hair, wearing black glasses and a black shirt with teal DOF logo. Dan is a white man with short brown hair wearing a gray shirt with white DOF logo. During the video, each person takes turns signing the text shown on the left side of the screen.
Video opens with a white background with rose pink text: 3 Reasons to Become a Champion of Deaf Organizations! Underneath text is a GIF of coral pink hands on a navy blue circle background. The hands, partly outlined in teal, sign the word “champ” repeatedly, and a row of multicolor all-caps text, “CHAMP!” is next to the hands. As the sign repeats, so do multicolored bursts of dots and whisker lines around the entire graphic.
Intro transitions to half the video being teal background with blue text: “CONTRIBUTION.” Dan on the right signs, “You decide the size of your contribution based on your budget and what makes sense and feels right for you.”
Then the video switches to half rose background with white text: “CONVENIENCE.” Avi on the right signs, “It’s convenient! A lot less work is required of you. Set up your donation once and then forget it - it will recur monthly on its own. If your goals change, you want to increase or decrease the amount, pause, or cancel, you can - we get it!”
The video changes to half navy blue background with white text: “CONNECTION.” Sasha on the right signs, “When comparing people who give monthly with new, one-time donors, most organizations tend to retain the monthly donors and lose touch with the new, one-time donor group. Monthly donors feel much more connected to our work.”
Avi, Dan, and Sasha side by side sign “champ” at the same time.
Video closes with white background with rose pink text: Become a Champion of Deaf Organizations today and be part of history!” The same multicolor bursts of dots and whisker lines appear and flash all around this text as from the beginning of the video.
