The Hearing Foundation provides patient treatment for hearing impaired, medical research into causes, treatment and prevention of deafness, and public education on hearing conservation.

The Hearing Foundation, a non-profit, 501(c)3, foundation was formed by the Lions Clubs of Nevada/California in 1982. The foundation is dedicated to assisting deaf and hearing-impaired people who are unable to afford the proper medical care.

The Foundation sponsors ear-related surgeries and issues hearing-aids from its community banks. Member Lions are encouraged to seek outpatients in their community who might benefit from such services. Lions are encouraged to collect and send hearing aids no longer being used to our office.

The Foundation is funded by two seperate sources. Lions Clubs may become members through a small, semi-annual donation. Individuals or Friends of the Foundation may make Fellowship donations in the amount of donating $250, $500 or $1,000, to be used for Foundation investment purposes.

Officers and Directors of the Foundation are happily available to make presentations for club and cabinet meetings. If you would like a presentation, please call or write our office:
