Mr Negline's 4N Class Day Without Speech

Mr Negline's 4N Class Day Without Speech
Story
We at Murray Farm Public School are going to challenge ourselves by giving up speaking for part of our day!
Instead of speaking, we will communicate through other methods, such as hand gestures, facial expressions, and writing and we will be supporting projects in Cambodia! With your support, children and their families will receive the right services to break free from poverty, and lead full and happy lives.
Why Speech Therapy?
A social problem like this is rarely encountered in developed countries. In Cambodia, children with communication difficulties often limits the ability to go to school. At least 600,000 Cambodians, around 1 in 25 people, live with a communication or swallowing disability.
And yet, there are no Cambodian speech therapists, no government policy addressing this issue, and limited knowledge about speech therapy.
The funds go towards creating a university program to train Cambodians to be speech therapists and trainings for teachers on including children with communication difficulties into their classrooms.
We are giving up our voices so that others can find theirs.
Will you join us?
------
Donations made through this platform are secure and will be remitted directly through to Global Development Group for project J703N OIC Cambodia to help with their efforts to bring speech therapy to the at least 600,000 Cambodians in need of services.

OIC Cambodia (Education) (Global Development Group – J703N)
OIC Cambodia (Education) is a Global Development Group approved aid and development project (J703N) which aims to address the gap in health services in Cambodia for more than 600,000 people with a communication or swallowing disability.
Communicating with others is at the heart of being human and helping people communicate is at the heart of what we do. We are working towards a Cambodia where each of these people receives the speech therapy services they need to communicate with those around them, and lead full and happy lives.
We have two significant goals to addressing the speech therapy needs in Cambodia:
- To train teachers in speech therapy-based inclusive education to better include children with communication disabilities into schools. This project will benefit 180 teachers and 5,400 children with communication disabilities across six provinces in Cambodia.
- To graduate the first generation of Cambodian speech therapists from a Cambodian university.
OIC Cambodia is proud to be a partner for Project J703N OIC Cambodia (Education) with Global Development Group (ABN: 57 102 400 993), an Australian DFAT approved Non-Government Organisation.
