Check out this recent new story featured on ZNBC – Zambia’s largest television service provider showcasing the Starkey Hearing Institute and it’s great work happening in Zambia.
In Burundi, hearing care is reaching children right where they need it most, the classroom.
This past World Hearing Day, Starkey Hearing Foundation Burundi alumni brought ear and hearing screenings directly to students at Stella Matutina School. More than 406 children were served in a single day, surrounded by teachers, classmates, and a community cheering them on.
With partners including the World Health Organization Burundi Office, the Ministry of Education, and other local leaders, one message is clear. When hearing healthcare happens in schools, children are more likely to be identified early, treated, and supported for long term success.
That is the power of the WFA method. A model that is universal, adaptable, and designed to reach people where they live, learn, and grow. Because when children can hear, they have a better chance to learn, participate, and build the future ahead of them.
The first time Shameera heard the world around her, she began to sing.
Shameera is five years old and full of curiosity. She loves being around other kids and wants to play, explore, and be part of everything happening around her.
When she received hearing aids, a new world began to open up. Her face lit up with discovery. And before long, Shameera found her voice and began to sing.
Hearing is about more than sound. It’s connection, confidence, and the simple moments a mother and daughter share together.

This is what hearing happiness looks like.
