Our Story — DPV RETURNS at DeafNation World Expo 2027
DPV RETURNS has grown into something powerful — a community where Deaf voices, creativity, humor, connection, and real conversations come together. What started as online engagement has turned into meaningful relationships and opportunities that reach far beyond the screen.
Now we’re ready for the next step.
We want to bring DPV RETURNS to DeafNation World Expo Las Vegas 2027 by reserving two exhibition booths and supporting the team that will represent our community in person. This gives us the chance to meet our members face-to-face, expand our reach, promote what we’ve built together, and create new opportunities for the future.
Our fundraising goal is $5,000 to help cover:
• Two exhibition booth reservations
• Travel-related costs
• Materials and setup for both booths
• Basic necessities for exhibitors during the event (food and drinks while working long expo hours)
Booth Pricing Timeline (For TWO Booths):
• $1,090 total (Early-Early Bird — $150 off per booth) if secured by March 1, 2026
• $1,390 total (Early Bird) available until February 22, 2027
• $1,990 total (Regular Price) after February 22, 2027
Securing the lowest rate now saves hundreds of dollars that can go directly toward supporting our team and presentation at the expo.
We’re asking our community members and supporters to contribute $5–$20 if possible. When many people give a small amount, we can accomplish something big together.
Every contribution — no matter the size — moves us closer to representing our community on a national stage.
If you’re unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser is just as valuable.
We appreciate every person who believes in what DPV RETURNS is building. This isn’t just about booths — it’s about showing up, together.
Thank you for being part of the journey.
