Nearly 38 million Americans are impacted by hearing loss. As they struggle to communicate and interact with the world, they become more isolated. Thankfully, the use of effective hearing aids can vastly improve their quality of life. The National Hearing Aid Project aims to ensure that income is never a barrier to better hearing and provides cost-free hearing aids and related services to individuals in need. 

Hi my name is Ayanna, and I am 14 years old. I was diagnosed with severe to profound hearing loss at the age of 6 months. Upon diagnosis, I was fitted with two hearing aids. With the benefit of these hearing aids, I was able to hear, learn language, and communicate with my friends and family. Without having access to this technology, I would have struggled to hear and participate. Alhough I recieved a cochlear implant in my right ear when I turned three, I continue to wear an aid in my left ear!

My family had the means to purchase my hearing aids at critical age. In fundraising, I hope to help children and adults who do not have the resources benefit from the gift of sound, just like I did!

Join me in supporting the Hearing Aid Project and help us get closer to a happier, hearing world! Any donation helps these individuals lead a better life.
