A little history behind Convo's contest for our Deaf youth.

Never Stop Dreaming is a contest in which we ask deaf and hard-of-hearing youth to tell us what their dream is and why. Convo has always been committed to the future of our community. A contest like this promotes creativity and critical thinking in our young deaf and hard-of-hearing leaders, and that is a social responsibility Convo has always valued. 

This year (2019) will be Convo’s third NSD contest targeted to deaf and hard-of-hearing youth with the goal to inspire them to dream big. Each contest has had unique partnerships and areas of focus.

The first one was held in 2016 in which the winners flew to Los Angeles and watched Nyle DiMarco on Dancing With the Stars

2017

The second contest in 2017 was partnered with The Daily Moth, LEAD-K, and several Deaf-owned businesses with the prize being a weekend in Austin with The Daily Moth, which included a red carpet event to Wonderstruck.

2019

2019 will be our third contest and this time, we've partnered with Deaf Film Camp. Participants need only submit a one-minute film that includes two things: Convo (in any way) and the sign "Dream" (in any way). The winner will receive a free ticket to Deaf Film Camp 2019!
