Biggest Hearing Health Non Profit Organizations and How to Get

Involved

You want to help people struggling with

hearing loss, but the selection of charitable

organizations is overwhelming. You should

consider where your money is going, how it

is being used, and if the organization is

trustworthy. Look for a large, well-known

hearing health charity organization that is

right for you, and join knowing you are

helping a good cause.

Hearing Loss Association of America – With

14 state organizations, Hearing Loss

Association of America (HLAA) leads the way in the U.S. as the largest national

organization for sufferers of hearing loss. Its mission is to provide resources and

support to individuals with hearing loss and their families while educating the public

about hearing impairments. HLAA also strives to help the public through legislation

and awareness. Visit the HLAA website at www.hearingloss.org to become a member

or for information about upcoming charity walks in your area.

Hearing Health Foundation – Collette Baker Ramsey, a woman who suffered from

hearing loss herself, created Hearing Health Foundation in the 1950s. The

organization has two main areas of focus. One is research into new treatments and

cures for hearing loss. The other is hearing loss prevention through public education.

One of the current endeavors of the foundation is providing research meant to cure

tinnitus (constant ringing in the ears). If you wish to contribute to Hearing Health

Foundation, there are several ways to help. Money is always the easiest donation for

a charity to accept. This can be in the form of a one-time donation, monthly

donations or gift of stock. You can write and share a personal experience with hearing

loss, assist in fundraising, and even name a research grant. For the most up-to-date
