By Sandra Sanchez | Restoring hearing to 100 children in Panama.
At Fundación Oír es Vivir, we work to ensure that no child's future is limited by hearing loss that goes undetected. Through our hearing health outreach programs, we reach vulnerable communities to identify hearing difficulties, infections, and other conditions that, without timely care, could affect children's learning, academic performance, and social development.
During our most recent outreach in Veracruz, we provided hearing care to 125 children, referring 38 of them for a second phase of care, where they will undergo additional evaluations to complete their diagnosis. Once an ENT specialist determines each child's condition, we will be able to provide the necessary support, including hearing aids for those who need them.
Because our mission does not end with detecting hearing difficulties. We are committed to supporting every child so they have the opportunity to hear, learn, and reach their full potential.
