Wear a loud outfit and help deaf kids to listen and speak.
Nationwide
Loud Shirt Day is being held this September and we are on the lookout for thousands of superheroes.
Could you be one of them?
Loud Shirt Day is all about getting loud to change the lives of New Zealand’s deaf and hearing impaired children.
Loud Shirt Day sees schools, businesses, community groups and individuals raise money by dressing up in a loud shirt and collecting donations from participants.
Schools could hold a mufti-day, businesses might hold a themed morning tea, individuals can host a breakfast for their friends asking everyone to bring a donation with them and retirement village could stage a fashion parade. Check out www.loudshirtdaynz.org/fundraise for more ideas.
Participants can hold their event on September 28, or a date that suits them in September.
Among those who will benefit from the outrageous fashion crimes being committed this year are the campaign superheroes - Felix , 3, Matthias , 4, Matilda, 3 and Izabella , 4.
The youngsters are among the hundreds of New Zealand children who come to The Hearing House and the Southern Cochlear Implant Programme for audiology services and auditory-verbal therapy. All services are free to families.

All donations made through GiveALittle are directed to Loud Shirt Day.
The Hearing House is a charity for deaf children and their families. Our mission is to enable deaf or hearing impaired children to listen and speak like their hearing peers. We aim to give deaf children with cochlear implants or hearing aids the ability to fulfil their potential and live an independent life in a hearing and speaking world.
Money raised for Loud Shirt Day helps provide auditory-verbal therapy to deaf and hearing-impaired children so they can listen and speak like hearing kids. The aim is for deaf children to focus on their abilities, not their disability.
