Give to the Max Day is Almost Here — November 20, 2025
As we approach Give to the Max Day, we’re excited to share how your support fuels two essential areas of our work at ThinkSelf: Adult Education and DVSA advocacy. These programs reflect our commitment to creating accessible, culturally affirming spaces where Deaf adults can learn, heal, and thrive.
Empowering Deaf Adults Through Education
Our Adult Education program provides language-rich instruction that opens doors to increased independence, confidence, and opportunity. From literacy and ASL skill-building to career readiness and everyday life navigation, your generosity makes it possible for Deaf adults to access education designed with their culture and language at the center.
Supporting Deaf Survivors Through Advocacy
ThinkSelf’s DVSA (Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault) advocacy program offers barrier-free support for Deaf survivors across Minnesota. Through crisis response, safety planning, systems advocacy, community education, and trauma-informed services, we work to ensure that Deaf survivors are believed, supported, and safe. Your donation directly strengthens these life-saving services.
Our 2025 Goal: $15,000
Every gift—no matter the size—helps us continue expanding access to both education and advocacy for Deaf adults. When you give, you’re investing in safety, access, language equity, and community connection.
We hope you’ll join us on November 20 for Give to the Max Day and help us reach our $15,000 goal. Your partnership makes a real and lasting difference.
And because we like to have a little fun…
