2022 ANNUAL APPEAL

Give the Gift of Hearing - Donate Today!

Are you ready to make an impact in the lives of deaf and hard-of-hearing children in need? 

The Foundation for Hearing and Speech Resources has been making sound investments in children for the past 60 years, thanks to FHSR’s generous donors.  But, there is still work to be done, and we need your help to continue to support and grow our programs in 2023. 

We’re pleased to present the inspiring story of Roselynn  – FHSR’s 2022 Champion Child – and encourage you to learn more about her journey below.  Because of the support from people like you, Roselynn has been the recipient of a variety of life-changing programs offered by the Foundation. 

Working to fulfill our mission in 2022, FHSR added two new Music to My Ears (MTME) school sites, increased the number of children in the tuition-free early childhood and instrument program by 15%, built out the preschool stage to the online resource Ages & Stages, collaborated to reach more than 450 students through a literacy program, and launched a music therapy program unique to deaf and hard of hearing children.

With your help, we can continue to impact our community in a lasting way.  These  additional funds will allow FHSR to expand our programming to meet the needs of Deaf and Hard of Hearing children

FHSR End Quotes Small

COMMUNITY OUTREACH

FHSR knows how difficult it can be for deaf and hard-of-hearing children to not see peers who look just like them, and how isolating it can be for families. The Foundation offers annual free family events to combat this issue and provides policy opportunities for parents - their child’s best advocates.
DONATE TODAY

EDUCATION PROGRAMS

Literacy is the cornerstone of a deaf or hard-of-hearing child’s successful school experience. FHSR works to create and fund unique education programs that help parents at each age & stage through the distribution of books and providing age-appropriate resources to parents.

LOANER HEARING AID BANKS

Loaner hearing aids ensure that a child’s hearing and communication are not interrupted because they don’t have a device or their family cannot afford one. This was Roselynn's first interaction with FHSR - she received her aid in 2018! Read her story below.
DONATE TODAY

MUSIC PROGRAMS

FHSR’s music programming - including the MTME program, provides tuition-free music enrichment classes for children from birth - four years old and instrument lessons from 4 to 16 years of age, was Roselynn’s second program with FHSR. When she transitions out of the early childhood program, she’ll begin her private piano lessons! Read her story below.

HART FAMILY COCLEAR IMPLANT EDUCATION COORDINATOR

The Hart Family Cochlear Implant Education Coordinator, a unique position funded by FHSR, helps families make the best school choice for each child, and includes training for school administrators and educators on how to work with a child who has cochlear implants.

FHSR ANNUAL APPEAL

We need your help. Won’t you join us, and make an impact in the life of a child like Roselynn, today?
DONATE TODAY

MEET ROSELYNN

Spending any amount of time with this almost 5-year-old and her infectious smile will have you grinning from ear to ear and possibly wishing you too could be a fairytale princess.  

Born with bilateral hearing loss, Roselynn has overcome many obstacles to become the loving talkative singing little girl we know today.  

Identified with mild to moderate hearing loss, Roselynn was first fitted with hearing aids at Comer Children’s Hospital in 2018.  Thanks in part to FHSR’s funding of the Comer’s loaner hearing aid bank, Roselynn was able to get loaner hearing aids right away instead of waiting for hers to arrive.  This limited the time she went without hearing all the rich sounds of her world. With hearing aids in place, Roselynn and her family began her hearing and communication journey.
