Report

With the old hearing aids, the boy with hearing loss heard as if he were underwater. Some sounds would reach him, but not clearly. At home, his parents had to communicate with him using gestures, always turning to face the child during conversations and speaking very loudly. But this helped little. By the age of 10, Artem's vocabulary was very limited, and in order to move the situation forward, it was urgently necessary to replace the old hearing aids, which could no longer be repaired and had long since stopped working, with new ones. And that's when you, friends, came to the rescue!

Now Artem has new and powerful hearing aids. His mother, Yulya, says she immediately noticed that speech clarity in the new devices is much higher, her son understands her better, and she no longer has to make extra efforts to get her point or request across to him. "And I'm also very happy that his vocabulary is expanding now that he can hear those around him better."

Artem himself is extremely proud of his new hearing aids—they're a cool, modern gadget. He showed them off both at school and in the yard. They have an awesome feature—they connect to a phone, and the caller's voice or music goes straight to his ear, with no background noise. The boy is happy. And so are we, for him. Thank you!

About the campaign

Hearing aids will help Artem hear all sounds, communicate, and learn without interference

Without powerful hearing aids, Artem will be unable to hear the world and will never learn to speak.

"Mom, I'm going for a walk," "How are you?" "I love you." Forming these short sentences is no easy task for ten-year-old Artem. His severe hearing loss is to blame. If you can't hear properly, you can't repeat it. Without hearing aids, he can't do well in school, communicate, or even hear emergency signals, like a fire alarm.

The hearing aids Artem currently wears are unsuitable for his needs: they aren't powerful enough for him to hear clearly. He can't use the ones the state issued to him: they are only suitable for pensioners with hearing loss. Meanwhile, audiologists have selected a highly powerful and modern model for him, and the family has received a government certificate for it—but the value of the certificate is insufficient to cover the full cost of the aids.

Now you know there's someone out there who wants to hear and speak. Like you and me. We'll help!
