Your Support

Your Gift of Support Helps!

Each and every gift helps the Hearing and Speech Center of Northern California provide better services for deaf and hard-of-hearing people throughout the Bay Area.

How Your Gift Can Help

• $1,000 provides a deaf/hard-of-hearing child with communication and counseling support
• $500 provides a family with a deaf child with eight intensive communication training sessions
• $250 provides a hard-of-hearing adult with five mental health sessions
• $100 provides two low-income seniors access to hearing aids
• $50 provides information, guidance and referrals to five families.

Your support is vital. Only with community support can the Hearing and Speech Center be there when we are needed. Take a moment to make an impact today.
