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.
The best celebration this World Cup didn’t happen in a stadium.
The World Cup Final is set, and 11-year-old Bryan can’t wait to cheer for Argentina. Cristiano Ronaldo may be his favorite player, but this weekend he is all in for Argentina.
A few months ago, Bryan’s hearing aids broke while he was playing soccer, making communication at school and at home difficult again.
At a Starkey Hearing Foundation aftercare clinic, Bryan received new hearing aids. He was especially excited that they were smaller because kids had teased him about his old ones.
With his hearing restored and his confidence back, Bryan celebrated the only way a Ronaldo fan knows how...
For 15-year-old Kibirango Hatima, hearing clearly means more than simply listening. It means learning with confidence, participating in class, and believing in what's possible.
As a student at Emirates College Nkoowe in Uganda, hearing loss once made it difficult to follow lessons and keep up with her classmates. Since receiving hearing aids, she can hear her teachers clearly, engage in class with confidence, and her academic performance has improved.
This week, Hatima returned to Starkey Hearing Foundation’s Aftercare Center in Kampala after noticing one of her hearing aids was no longer providing the amplification she needed. Her device was adjusted to better match her hearing needs, and she received additional counseling to help ensure she continues getting the most from her hearing aids.
Because hearing healthcare doesn't end with the first fitting.
Through ongoing aftercare, we help make sure children like Hatima continue to hear, learn, and grow with confidence, giving them every opportunity to build the future they deserve.
The world may look different. What families hope for doesn't.
Whether in Zambia, the Philippines, or anywhere else in the world, parents want the same thing: the chance to connect with their children and watch them grow, learn, and thrive.
That shared hope brought Kabwe Kabwe, a graduate of the Starkey Hearing Institute in Zambia, to the Philippines, where he joined local teams providing hearing healthcare to children during the years that matter most. When hearing loss is identified early, children have the opportunity to develop speech and language, build confidence, succeed in school, and stay connected to the people who love them most.
"This completes me," Kabwe shared. "Seeing children who were once unable to hear now smile as they turn toward their mother. Watching that connection be restored is what makes this work so meaningful."
No matter where we serve, the impact reaches far beyond hearing. It strengthens families, opens doors to opportunity, and gives children the confidence to discover their voice.
Because every child deserves the chance to hear the voices that will help shape their future.
