Dear OTG Supporters,

As we near the end of another incredibly challenging and an increasingly difficult and dark year, we invite our supporters to learn about all the ways our non-profit organization, Off-The-Grid Missions (OTG), has been working to heal suffering around the world.

In 2023, amidst countless obstacles, OTG remained the sole non-governmental organization (NGO) dedicated to bridging the gap in disaster response. Your generous contributions have empowered us to deliver vital aid, including medical response, food relief, solar lights, powerbanks, reusable period pads, clean water systems, and more to Deaf, Hard-of-Hearing, DeafBlind, DeafDisabled (DHHDBDD) people and their families in high-risk regions. With more than 1.5 billion people worldwide affected by hearing loss, they are often the first to lose ‘access’ even before a disaster strikes. OTG’s deaf-led team communicates in a multitude of regional sign languages and international sign, and is trained in OTG’s disaster response program. We work hard to ensure that donor support directly reaches DHHDBDD people in crisis.

Here’s a summary of our year-long efforts dedicated to easing the suffering for isolated Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing (DHH) families around the world.
