Why donate to the Miracle-Ear Foundation: The impact of your gift

Hearing connects us to the world around us, allowing us to engage in conversations, appreciate music, and experience life’s precious moments. Yet, for millions of individuals living with hearing loss, these simple joys can feel out of reach. The Miracle-Ear Foundation is committed to bridging this gap by providing access to life-changing hearing solutions for those in need. When you donate to the Miracle-Ear Foundation, you’re not just giving the Gift of Sound—you’re transforming lives. Help us make a difference by donating today.

A legacy of impact

Since its inception in 1990, the Miracle-Ear Foundation has been a beacon of hope for individuals with hearing loss who lack resources to access quality hearing aids. Through the Gift of Sound™ program, the Foundation has served thousands of children and adults across the country, ensuring that hearing healthcare is accessible to all, regardless of their financial circumstances.

In 2024 alone, the Foundation provided hearing aids to more than 3,000 individuals. These hearing aids helped recipients reconnect with their families, workplaces, and communities.

Real lives transformed

Your donation directly contributes to stories of transformation. Consider Frederick LeVitre, a 96-year-old man who had been relying on a whiteboard to communicate with his family due to his profound hearing loss. Thanks to the Miracle-Ear Foundation, Frederick received new hearing aids—allowing him to hear his daughter’s voice again. His tears of joy are a testament to the power of your generosity.

Or consider Zachary Harris, a young student who described his new hearing aids as making him feel “like Superman.” With the ability to hear clearly, he now faces the school year with newfound confidence, eager to participate and excel in his studies.

How your donation makes a difference

Every dollar donated to the Miracle-Ear Foundation is used to directly support individuals in need. In 2024:

More than 15,000 volunteer hours were dedicated by Miracle-Ear professionals to fit and support recipients.
The Foundation organized three large-scale Miracle Missions, bringing hearing care services to underserved communities in Dallas, TX, Omaha, NE, and Brooklyn, NY.
Every day in 2024, a dozen people were given the Gift of Sound in Miracle-Ear locations across the country.

Your contribution ensures that more people receive the hearing care they need to lead fulfilling, independent lives.
