A Letter to Our Community

Dear Community Supporter,

We are excited to invite you to partner with the CCHAT Center for our premier fundraising event, the 14th Annual CCHAT Uncorked-Fill the Silence, on April 11, 2026, at the Dante Event Center.

When CCHAT first opened its doors in 1996, a small team of four staff and 12 children with hearing loss embarked on an unknown journey. Their goal was clear: to teach children to listen and speak. Although hopeful, they could hardly have imagined the powerful impact CCHAT would have on the community over the next three decades.

Now in its 29th year, CCHAT has evolved into a vital community powerhouse and a trusted resource for families of children who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing (DHH). We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to develop strong oral communication skills and reach their full potential, regardless of hearing ability. Our specialized programs—including early intervention, speech and language therapy, and educational support—empower our students to thrive both academically and socially.

The annual CCHAT Uncorked event is a cornerstone of our efforts, raising crucial funds that enable our essential services to remain available to children and families in our program. More than just a fundraiser, the event significantly increases awareness about the unique challenges and inspiring triumphs of children who are DHH.

By sponsoring CCHAT Uncorked, your organization will:

• Demonstrate a powerful commitment to inclusivity and support for children in our community.
• Gain significant visibility and recognition among our attendees, who include prominent community leaders, philanthropists, and advocates for children who are
  DHH.

We offer a range of sponsorship levels, each providing unique benefits such as premier event tickets, exclusive promotional opportunities, and prominent acknowledgment in all event materials. Your generosity is not simply a donation; it is an investment in a child’s future, helping us continue to provide the vital resources that empower our students to learn to listen and speak.

We sincerely hope you will consider sponsoring this essential event for CCHAT. We look forward to the possibility of partnering with you and celebrating together at CCHAT Uncorked.

With sincere thanks,‍

Licia Green | CCHAT Director of Development
