Trusts and foundations
Support from Charitable Trusts and Foundations is critical to Sense International’s work. It’s because of significant partnerships that we can support people with deafblindness to thrive and live life to their full potential.
Your support will help us to:
- Identify and support children with deafblindness as early as possible in life, so they are ready for school
- Ensure children with deafblindness receive a quality, inclusive education
- Help young adults and their families to build an income and live independently
- Change societies and systems through advocacy and research

Our partners

The work of Sense International in Tanzania is crucial towards inspiring a generation of children who will become independent adults, contributing towards the national economy.No disability should hold someone back and we are delighted to have partnered with Sense International who hold this belief, as we do. These interventions will continue to make a positive impact for years to come”.
