Toky's story is a reminder of what's possible when purpose and opportunity meet. ❤️

From a chance meeting in Madagascar to traveling the world providing better hearing to those in need, his journey is an inspiration to us all.

Toky was a part of the first graduating class at the Starkey Hearing Institute Zambia and has become an integral part of our training team.

Thank you, Toky, for being a role model for our current and future Champions. It's people like you who are making a lasting impact on local communities!

#SoTheWorldMayHearFrom the parking lot in Antananarivo to the global stage — Toky Arison's story is one I will never stop sharing.

We first met in 2013 at Starkey Hearing Foundation's second hearing event in Madagascar. Toky was just 22 years old, a young man who didn't know much about the world yet, but Bill Austin and I saw something in him instantly: a caring heart, a sharp mind and a deep desire to serve.

Our paths crossed because they were meant to. Toky joined the very first class of the Starkey Hearing Institute Zambia, and I've watched with pride as he's grown into a true world servant and a global citizen.

Today, he's leading our Institute program with the University of Santo Tomas, changing lives every single day through better hearing.

Toky, I will forever be grateful for the moment our lives collided. 🦋❤️

Meet Hannah 👋

Since graduating from the Starkey Hearing Institute Zambia in 2023, she's been changing lives through hearing care in Liberia.

With compassion as her compass, Hannah enjoys seeking out opportunities to help people in her community. She even takes a motorbike to the local market to meet those who need help the most.

Whether in the clinic or in the field, she's not only providing hearing care, but hope, dignity and joy, one patient at a time.
