Surrounded by proud families, friends, and mentors, the room was filled with excitement for the future of hearing healthcare across the Philippines.

Last week we celebrated 27 new Hearing Healthcare Professionals graduating from the Starkey Hearing Institute Asia Pacific.

It was a joyful evening honoring the completion of the Hearing Health Specialist program, made possible through our partnership with the University of Santo Tomas. More than a ceremony, it was a celebration of the impact these graduates will bring to the communities they will soon serve.

We were honored to welcome distinguished guests including government leaders, our founders Bill Austin and Tani Austin, members of the Starkey Hearing Foundation Board, the National President of Delta Zeta Sorority National, and representatives from the University of Santo Tomas. A powerful performance by The Tenors made the evening even more memorable.

With the continued support of Starkey Hearing Foundation, these 27 professionals will return to more than 7 provinces across the Philippines, bringing hearing healthcare to communities where access has long been limited. The future of hearing care is growing, one community at a time.

World Hearing Day took us around the globe, and one moment truly stood out.

In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, 20 Starkey Hearing Institute alumni from seven different countries came together around one powerful goal: supporting Benjamin as he served 311 people in his own community with better hearing.

He even invited the local Minister of Health to witness the impact, showing that hearing care is not just for one day, but a long term investment worth making.

This is what meeting the need looks like. Training put to work. Collaboration across borders. Partnership with government. Real access to hearing healthcare.

When Starkey Hearing Foundation professionals come together, communities don’t just receive care. They gain a future where hearing is possible.

This World Hearing Day features the theme “From communities to classrooms: hearing care for all children.” Promoted by the World Health Organization, the campaign underscores the urgent need to identify and treat childhood hearing loss by integrating hearing healthcare into schools and community settings.

We are endlessly grateful for the hundreds of Starkey Hearing Foundation Professionals around the globe who bring hearing back to life - like Jimmy - whether serving 250 people on a mission with our Tanzania alumni or serving just one person through a home visit, year after year.

This World Hearing Day, we celebrate the simple, sustainable, and scalable impact of the Starkey Hearing Institutes and the growing network of Hearing Specialists training across the globe. With every new graduate we expand access, care and the gift of hearing.
