Fundraising for the Deaf History International and New Zealand
The top link is through Facebook and I am hoping to continue blogs, stories and photos on the Facebook page – Deaf History International and New Zealand. It is the second option to raise money as well.
It is a good opportunity for me to start up again and unfortunately, I was forced to put myself to get a loan for the iMac Desktop due to insufficiently respond through the website – Givealittle.co.nz I have got 86 days to go otherwise I will review and edit the page for an extra time. Now I am paying back to the loan from my work income. I would be grateful if you can spread my page to your family, friends and colleagues. Raise money for the desktop and materials
Health issues forced me to cut back working from home and home visit including at the office in Hamilton City. I am still waiting for the second appointment on neurology conductive assessment at the Waikato Hosptial. This means I am on the waiting list for another 3-12 months along with the other people.
I enjoyed visiting two elderly Deaf men last week and I took notes down from the conversation of their early days at the school for the Deaf in Christchurch and Auckland. One elderly man – Les, gave me two books which called N.Z Deaf News dating from 1963 to 1973.
Last week I received a good new from Queensland Archives and they have got a few records on Mrs W. Mitchell Skerman, who she was a teacher of the Deaf children. Her sister was Dorcas Mitchell whom I am tracing her life and her works in Canterbury, New Zealand. I can not wait to see the record from Queensland, Australia.
Well, that is all for now.
