MISSION STATEMENT
Off-The-Grid Missions (OTG) is a global humanitarian aid organization filling the gap in disaster-response by providing Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing people with critical life-saving resources in high-risk and disaster-stricken regions around the world.
Among the global landscape of Disaster-Response NGOs in place, OTG is the sole organization dedicated to providing humanitarian aid for Deaf, Hard-of-Hearing, DeafBlind, and DeafDisabled (DHHDBDD) individuals worldwide. OTG empowers Deaf Communities around the world with Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing (DHH) relief workers and humanitarian aid amidst disasters and war.
OTG merch is a lifestyle and a way to give. 100% proceeds go to Off-The-Grid Missions disaster-response ops to bring humanitarian aid to deaf and disabled people in crisis.
Alarming humanitarian needs are rapidly escalating in scale and severity for DHH civilians caught in the crossfire. Furthermore, in the many corners of the world we serve, many DHH people have absolutely zero legal protections as they are considered sub-humans due to their disabilities, which greatly increase the chances of this population being subjected to incomprehensible violence.
Join our new online fundraising platform to start a fundraiser and combine it with a challenge or activity! It is transparent for donors, donations instantly transfer to our cause and the setup process takes minutes!
Looking to make a difference in disaster-affected marginalized communities? Join OTG as a partner to support rapid disaster response, annual operations, and long-term programs for Deaf and Hard-of-hearing individuals around the world. OTG relies on your generosity to make our life-saving operations possible.
Thank you to our partners who make this work possible!
The wailing air raid sirens, roaring explosions and ear-piercing gunshots. They’ve become a constant background noise across cities in Ukraine. Now, a non-profit organization is helping people who are deaf or hard of hearing learn of the danger. @ellisonbarber reports from Kyiv. pic.twitter.com/0QrTw3ijwg
