Our Campaign Story

ends 28 Feb 2023, 11:59 PM

Meet Rebecca (not her real name), one of the many students who benefit from the services offered at Canossaville Student Care (CSC). Her parents strive daily to make ends meet and are not able to provide the necessary guidance and supervision Rebecca requires at home after school.

Having Rebecca enrolled at CSC provides a safe and conducive environment for Rebecca to thrive. She receives the necessary support to learn and complete her homework. Thanks to the services provided by CSC and emotional support provided by the school to Rebecca and her parents, the situation at home and their relationship has also improved.

Canossaville believes that a holistic approach of care for the whole family will lead to sustainable positive change, and transform their lives for the better. With your help, we can support more families like Rebecca's.

About Campaign

Technology plays a huge part in empowering all our children especially those with severe to profound hearing loss.

Children with hearing loss need more intense and intentional literacy instruction from the early years and throughout their development pathways for literacy acquisition.

Through iPad applications such as Proloquo2Go, our students who have difficulties with speech can finally find a voice to easily and more confidently communicate with others, especially with their families.

Other digital devices such as interactive smartboards allow our teachers to engage students especially those with hearing loss and other learning difficulties, more effectively and efficiently during lessons. It creates opportunities for students to practice collaboration and fosters closer interaction with the lesson materials. Multimedia content are also especially effective at keeping students engaged during class.
