WE PARTICIPATE IN THE 2020 BABY FAIR

For the eighth consecutive year we participated in the Baby Fair, where we conducted hearing tests on more than 60 children between the ages of 0 and 3, in addition to delivering educational materials to people who visited us, regarding ear care and the importance to do a hearing test at least once a year.

Thank you very much to all the volunteers who accompanied us during these three days! And to our Board of Directors, who also said present!

UNDER ARMOR VOLUNTEER FAIR

Thanks to the PANAMA VOLUNTEERS team for the invitation to the Volunteer Fair organized at the UNDER ARMOR company, where we had the opportunity to give more information to the attendees so that they become part of the activities of Fundación Oír es Vivir as volunteers .

STARKEY FOUNDATION HEARING AID DONATION DAY

For the second year, volunteering with the STARKEY FOUNDATION on the hearing aid donation day, where 450 people benefited from new hearing aids and batteries. A donation that STARKEY was organized in conjunction with IPHE.

We are happy to have been part of this day and to help more people in Panama get their hearing aids.

OUR SOCIAL NETWORKS CONTINUE TO BE A SOURCE OF EDUCATION.

We continue to give practical advice to everyone on hearing topics that often go unnoticed. We are pleased to know that through the content we share we continue to educate young and old.

Together with the authorities of the Ministry of Education and teachers from the San Miguelito sector, we are organizing ourselves for the execution and development of the program that we will carry out for the FOV / MIDES/MEDUCA 2020 public schools. We will include hearing exams, Otorhinolaryngology care and delivery of educational material.

We held meetings with executives of the DELL Panama company, who know and see value in our work and are willing to collaborate with various activities carried out at the Foundation. Your support and trust in our work encourages us to continue.

Day of Good Actions and our Hearing Health Tour to Ocú.

We had to suspend until second order, our hearing health tour to the Ocú community, due to all the events that we are going through due to the Coronavirus. This would have been our # 19 tour and was estimated to benefit approximately 200 children from this rural community. We hope to reschedule it once it is safe.
