Our local Sertoma Club of Greater Sarasota is working to help build the Hearing Aid Project locally and we need your help!
Help to give someone else the gift of hearing!
Whether you realize it or not, hearing aids hold a substantial amount of power. These small, yet incredible devices make big things possible for people every day.
Hearing aids can improve a person’s cognitive abilities, communication skills and in essence help people live a safer and healthier life.
Although millions of individuals could benefit from hearing aids, many people are not able to afford them due to the rising costs. Thanks to your donations, the Hearing Aid Project is able to eliminate the financial barriers that hold many people back from the help they need.
There are three ways you can help!
- This program provides free hearing aids to those over the age of 18 that cannot afford hearing aids - but we need to get the word out to let people know about this! So, please tell everyone you know about the Hearing Aid Project!
- Regardless of the hearing aid shape, size, type or age, the parts of a used hearing aid can be used to repair and improve the functionality of others. Every donation can and will make a difference in the life of someone who needs it. If you know of anyone that has older hearing aids, please let them know they can donate those (and its a tax deduction). There is a donation box in the Sertoma Kids office, or you can contact Richard or Carol and they will gladly accept the donations. Pickup is also available.
- If you know a hearing professional (Hearing Aid Specialist or Audiologist) please invite them to contact Richard or Carol to get more information on how to become involved!
Our local Sertoma club is proud to be a part of this national project, so lets spread the word about it!
