WE ARE SERIOUS NEED A KEY TO OPEN THE DOOR TO MCCSDHH!! - Mid-south Community Center Services for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing: This is very IMPORTANT and we needs YOUR help! Mid-south Community Center Services for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing is a new non-profit deaf service organization. Once we raise enough funds to pay all of the fees we need to finish for business set-up, our first job will be to help the VR office with placing the deaf and hard of hearing in work.

We need to raise $5000 quick so we can help the VR office to find work for the deaf and hard of hearing. The $5000 pays for business insurance, IRS fees, business license fees, and other legal fees.
