Help Natalia raise funds for a Cochlear Implant!

Tax deductible
Natalia is a 4 year old girl living in Makuyu, Kenya. She has two sisters and lives with her parents who are farm hands/farmers. She goes to a pre-school, the Makuyu Education Initiative, for underprivileged children.

Unfortunately, Natalia cannot hear due to a condition she was born with. Because she cannot hear her own voice, she also does not talk.

Natalia puts on a brave face every day. She joins kids in play time and does her lessons, but a world without sound, without music, without being able to speak is a difficult world to live in.

However, there is a solution: the cochlear implant. However, her parents cannot afford the cost and the surgery is costly. The hospital estimates $35,000 for both implants.

We believe no one, let alone a 4 year old girl, should live a life without sound or speaking if it can be fixed. Please help us raise enough funds to literally change her life for the better.

If we can raise the amount, we hope to film her hearing for the first time and share the experiences with you. Please join us on this remarkable journey of hope.

Note: In the event we are unable to raise enough funds or we raise more funds than we need, we will use the remaining funds for the benefit of the other children in our organization.
