In the early hours of the morning, A Chance In Life President/CEO Gabriele Delmonaco received a dire message from Sister Luciana, the dedicated Director of Ephpheta. Heartbroken, she painted a vivid picture of the desperate situation on the ground where innocent children must endure unimaginable suffering. 

The Ephpheta School for the Deaf in Bethlehem has been a refuge for countless deaf children, irrespective of their faith and background.

Today the instructors and staff work tirelessly to continue providing education and a sense of normalcy to children with hearing impairments. Unfortunately, the worsening humanitarian crisis has severely disrupted the school and shattered the lives of the children and families it serves. 

We need your help to provide the children and their families with lifelines for essential food, medical supplies and the opportunity to continue their education. 

Your $500 donation can sustain an entire family of six for a month, offering them hope amidst the ongoing crisis.  

In response to this urgent call for help, one of our Board Members has pledged to match donations up to $25,000 raised for Ephpheta this month. That means that your contribution will be doubled, amplifying its impact and reaching even more children in need. 

The children depend on us for hope and support. We need you now more than ever.  

Children and their teacher at Ephpheta, 2022

Ephpheta, a haven of hope nestled in Bethlehem, was born out of Pope Paul VI’s deep concern for deaf children. It is a living testament to our ability to provide for those in need, guided by the principles of unity, compassion and unwavering hope. A Chance In Life supports this school and is committed to ensuring that no child is deprived of their right to an education, joy, and serenity.

Please consider the transformative power of your contribution to the students at Ephpheta. The children and their families depend on us for hope and support during this time.

You can make a difference today.
