Get Involved
As a non-profit organization, CEID is tasked with raising 1/3 of its operating budget each year to keep the doors open. Every dollar raised supports children and adults who are Deaf and Hard of Hearing with services to increase communication, access language, and connect with community. CEID relies on the support of donors who know the value of our unique programs.
