Donate to Improve Quality of Life with Hearing Aids
Donation protected
Friends, family and community members I'm coming here today as a last resort effort to help my friend raise enough money to buy a pair of hearing aids... HOWEVER, I can't mention her name , but I can tell you that she loves the outdoors, visiting with friends , going for walks , but the struggle is not being able to hear . Not only is that a danger in the community, but it also keeps her from taking important calls , and also affects her speech, she does also have a developmental disability.
Let me back up a couple years .
She has not been able to hear since birth ( now an adult)
We have had hearing tests that show she does not hear , and just had another at St Luke's . The dr there says she definitely needs hearing devices to improve her quality of life in many ways , BUT HERE IS WHERE IT GETS TRICKY .
We have been given many resources, referrals, & reference IDEAS , made many phone calls, but there is no help for hearing if you live outside of Ada or Canyon county... not even one ....
We did find a few programs that offer hearing aids for a way lower cost than what you can get anywhere else..
The problem is that the cost for her would be 750$ ,and she lives on disability which we all know is not much compared to the cost of living..We are not looking for a hand out , but we are looking for a few individuals to please help her achieve her goal of getting enough money to restore her hearing with hearing aids....
ANY donation will be appreciated, and applied directly to her purchase....
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH.
Attached is the different information I received from St Luke's so you can personally see the cost .. After doing our research, we decided to go with the 750$ hearing aids do to availability, and preference , and a 4-6 month turn around time...
