Super Ears
Technology has made such wonderful advancements for helping children with special needs. The challenge is the cost. Raising a child with special needs is quadruple the cost of other children, so most children never get to take advantage of the amazing opportunities for their development. Six-year-old Ryan has bilateral hearing loss and his family just purchased hearing aids, or his “Super Ears” as Ryan calls them, in time for kindergarten next fall. His surgeon and therapists recommend a FM system that will allow teachers’ voices to be heard directly in Ryan’s Super Ears via the FM sound system. The cost of the Widex FM Dex on top of the cost of hearing aids just wasn’t doable at this time. So, Variety donors made it happen! Now, Ryan’s Super Ears are elevated to a super power! Help make the latest technologies available for all kids, donate today.
