TESTIMONIALS

Malina-2020
Malina & Her Mom
Recipients of Tuition Grant

“We’re really grateful for the grant program that was able to help us get the hearing aids for Malina. Without that help there would have been the stress of debt or not being able to provide for her to get those hearing aids.

Her hearing aids and the technology that is connected to them has really helped her to be able to navigate the world we’re in and we’re just grateful for the support and the option and the availability of a grant that could help us in this time of our need. “

Recipient of Tuition Grant

“I received my first scholarship from TPA at the end of my second year [at Central Institute for the Deaf]. This was such a blessing for me and my family. It helped cover the cost of tuition… Thank you so much for the generosity and kindness. My family can’t thank you enough. “

The TPA Hearing Trust was established to help individuals with hearing loss and provide them with the resources needed, including hearing devices, specialized treatments, speech classes, note-takers, and interpreters.

To date, the Trust has allocated more than $2.4 million to approximately 6,100 recipients throughout its history.

Roughly 20% of Americans—well over 48 million—have some degree of hearing loss. TPA wants to make sure they are getting the help they need and the respect they deserve.

Help us change lives. Any contribution is welcome and greatly appreciated.
