Annually, more than 660,000 children throughout the world are born with
reduced hearing – many of them in developing countries. Via the “52
Children” Project, the Swiss Hear the World Foundation has been
supporting disadvantaged children with hearing loss and has been
supplying them with new, high-quality Phonak hearing aids since 2010.
Free after-care in the country of origin is also assured. Three Moldovan
girls aged 10 and 11 thus received new hearing aids free of charge in
St. Gallen on August 4th, 2012.
