Deaf Seahawks Inspires Young Deaf Twins

FLANDERS, New Jersey -- Nine-year-old twins Riley and Erin Kovalcik were born with a genetic condition that left them partially Deaf. Last week, they saw a TV commercial featuring the Seattle Seahawks’ Derrick Coleman.

The Seattle Seahawks' Derrick Coleman makes fans' dream come true with tickets to the Super Bowl.

"I thought it was very touching because I didn’t think there was any athlete that actually could play that could be exactly hearing impaired like me and Erin," Riley says. "Like, I mean, seriously!"

"I saw the Duracell battery commercial. I remembered him saying he was bullied, and I was like, 'What? How is he a football player? I mean, he's really strong, but how does he let them bully him?'" Erin says.

Riley herself was picked on in school and was told not to play sports - a warning she ignored. After the Seahawks won last weekend, Riley picked up a pencil.

"Dear my inspiration Derrick Coleman," she says, reading her letter. "I know how you feel. I also have hearing aids. Just try your best. I have faith in you."

Their father Jake tweeted a picture of the letter, hoping Coleman would see it.

"I just wanted him to know how much he's doing for Deaf kids and little kids and all kids with disabilities," Jake says. "It doesn’t matter that you're deaf. It doesn't matter that you may have some other disability. You can be exceptional too."

That night, the Seahawks re-tweeted the letter. It's been shared and re-tweeted 2,700 times... Read The Full Story.

Deaf Produced BMW Commercial Ads On TV

Deaf produced BMW commercial gets national attention.

CHATTANOOGA, Tennessee -- A locally produced BMW of Chattanooga commercial, which features a Deaf employee and highlights the dealer's dedication to customer service is receiving national recognition.

In the advertisement, which is the fourth in a series produced by Moss Media Labs local BMW employee Scott Carpenter, who oversees the detail department at the dealership, uses sign language to express the importance of getting a BMW serviced by a BMW-certified technician.

Carpenter has been Deaf since he was 9 years old, and he conveys the message with only a smile and shoulder shrug.

“Scott exemplifies everything great about BMW of Chattanooga," Daniel Bellemare, BMW of Chattanooga’s general manager, said in a prepared statement. "He is a long-term employee who is always willing to lead the way into change. He is always a problem solver instead of a problem creator. We love Scott and are so happy he is part of our team.”

Leaders said the commercial has drawn attention from BMW USA leaders and from the National Association of the Deaf.

The association's CEO, Howard A. Rosenblum, said he encourages other employers to follow BMW of Chattanooga's example in displaying the important contributions that Deaf people bring as employees... Read The Full Story.
