New Foundation for Help With Hearing Loss

[Guest guest]

A foundation was set up to GIVE hearing aids (NEW ones, not rebuilt ones) to persons unable to afford them. I do not know if this applies to Cochlear Implants but felt it was worth mentioning here.

It is: HEAR NOW Program6700 Washington Avenue S.Eden Prairie, MN 55344phone: 1-

There is a nonrefundable processing fee of $50 per hearing aid.

Your income needs to be $11,225 or less for one person, $15,150 for a family of two, $19,075 for a family of 3; $23,000 for a family of 4, or $26,925 for a family of 5.

There is paperwork you have to complete in order to prove you're eligible, and you're advised that you could take 8 weeks before you know if you've been approved.

Patty,

It's true. There is also an organization called Sertoma that does

gives hearing aids to people who can't afford them. You can look at

their website at:

http://www.sertoma.org/

Hearing aids are extremely expensive so if you qualify for these

programs.. it's definitely worth looking into. Life without hearing

is very difficult.

Hi I was just wondering if anyone else read this past post on the

hearing aids. It almost sounds too good to be true, I know I would

quality financially, but just wanted to know if this isn't a scam or

something, to get 100 bucks out of us.

I just cant see any company giving out new $5000.00 hearing aids.

Maybe Alice out their could do some checking into this thanks for

listening anyway. Patty Kraynik
