Hearing Aids & More "Program"...
The hearing aid program can help so many people smile. As with John-John,
the feeling seeing him smile is truly wonderful. In 1999-2000 Richard Manual,
myself, and a few others were able to gather over 40 pairs of hearing aids for
the hearing impaired people of the Philippines.
In April of 2000, Mr. Manual went to the PI. With the help of an audiologist
and the PI doctors made his way to Tabanok to fit the hearing aids. Using
donated materials, he cleaned and then tested the individuals hearing loss.
After the testing was complete an ear-mold was taken. These would later be
brought back to the US for a more exact and longer lasting mold would be made
and then the finished mold would be sent .
The demand of course greatly outnumbered the supply. So we again hope to get
any type and style of working hearing aids. Non-working will also be accepted
with the hope that future repairs could be made.
For the Filipino people, all styles of hearing aids are acceptable. In the
PI, the people only wish to hear again, or even for the first time.
Please consider donating used or even new hearing aids. What else? How
about...
 | Hearing Aids (new or used) |
| Batteries, batteries and , more batteries |
| Ear mold fitting material |
| Are you an audiologist? How about donating your time in molding the
hearing aids? |
In the future, we hope to get pictures of the children to help you see that
there really is a need. And when you do give, remember, 100% of your gift will
be donated to help the children of the Philippines.
School Supplies "Program"...
Today, J-J goes to school for deaf children. The overall school conditions in
the Philippines is not the greatest but they are adequate. But for the deaf
children, school is not so. Because there is so much poverty, people with
disabilities are mainly forgotten. On the island of Cebu, where John-John goes,
there is only one school for the hearing impaired. of the 4 million people who
live in Cebu, 25,000 have hearing loss. Of those, only a handful can afford
school and even to get in.
J-J and his pals (J-J is in blue)
J-J is lucky. Very lucky. Being that his cousin is able to help, and that the
school is desperate for financial assistance for us and hopefully you, J-J is
able to go to school. He is crazy about going to school and comes home excited
as he talks with his hands. He so enjoys school that on the weekends he
sometimes gets upset if he is not allowed to go to school. He hasn't figured out
that school is closed on the weekend.
J-J is the only one in his class to have a hearing aid. Scholl resources are
very minimal if at all available. Any type of resource would be gladly accepted.
From text books to crayons. Don't worry about the donated materials being in
English. The English language is widely spoken in the Philippines.
Signing used in the PI is exactly the same as is
in the USA.
