Giving Back & Charity
Imaginears has teamed up with “Hearing The Call” to help provide the “gift of hearing” locally and globally. Imaginears in Medford and Ashland Oregon, has known for years that there are many people who need hearing healthcare but can’t afford it. Our campaign brings hope and healing to the hearing-impaired locally in Southern Oregon. Through quality healthcare, we help people connect with family, education, and opportunities.
The Need
1 in 5 Americans suffer from hearing loss to an extent that interferes with communication. We believe no one should miss out on participating fully in life because of hearing loss. Untreated hearing loss has a devastating impact on individuals, families, and communities. Sadly, even Medicare does not cover any of the costs of treating hearing loss, nor do many health insurance plans.
Our Give Back Model
Qualified participants will show proof of financial need, pay a small fee for their hearing devices and give back volunteer hours in their community as a way to say “Thank you” to the local companies, families and friends that are donating for their care.
- Diagnosed with a Hearing Loss
- Lives in the State of Oregon in Jackson or Josephine County
- Must pay $75 per device (used device that is refurbished with a 1-year warranty)
- Must complete 10 hours of community service at an approved location
- Must have representative sign-off on completed eligibility hours
- Household income must fall below poverty line
Many of our patients donate used instruments or make monetary donations to help make these mission trips a success. If you or someone you know has any hearing aids that are not being used, we would greatly appreciate it if you could donate them to our office. You too can help give the gift of hearing around the world. Along with the many mission trips, we also donate a portion of our profits each year to various local charities and organizations.
