Working for the hearing of Panamanian children is a complex and multidimensional task, which requires not only voluntary hands and many resources, but the promotion of a culture on an invisible and often ignored issue, at all ages.
For this reason, we share with a lot of joy that one more year we managed to raise awareness about the importance of hearing care thanks to the development of the Just 1 minute (#Solo1Minuto) of Silence Campaign where companies, universities, schools, government institutions, family and friends joined us in this initiative where everyone took a minute of silence to raise awareness of the need for a world with less noise and more hearing health.
In a very special way, our sisters foundations: Rafael Meza Ayau Foundation and FUSNINPE from El Salvador, also joined at this important moment.
This is how we made another step towards a society more aware of hearing problems, and of the attention that must be given so, from children to adults, can preserve in the best way this precious gift.
