Providing the opportunity to hear to children with hearing problems is a task that not only involves their direct attention, but it also requires teaching those involved in their care and growth about how to respond to their needs and challenges as they start growing up.
In this sense, one of the projects we have been developing in the second half of 2023, focuses on training teachers and parents, to give them the tools that will help them suspect when they are facing children with possible hearing loss and help them raise a flag to have them tested minimizing the effects of a delayed detection. We have been doing this job not only in Panama, but also inspiring other foundations in El Salvador with which today we have alliances to make a greater impact on children´s lives.
Through our project "Aprendo Escuchando” carried out with a public local institution MIDES (Ministry of Social Development), this year we have attended +650 children in different public schools, performing early detection hearing tests
We thank you for believing and supporting this project that continues transforming lives through the possibility of better hearing.
