Live Better Foundation

We established the Live Better Foundation to help those who truly can’t afford hearing aids get the help they need, within the communities where we live and work. This non-profit foundation is consistent with one of our important core values: to be of benefit to people in our communities.

"Gift of Hearing" Free Hearing Aid Event in Baltimore, Maryland

At Live Better Hearing + Balance, we believe everyone deserves the gift of hearing.

That’s why the Live Better Foundation, in partnership with Live Better Hearing + Balance, will hold a “Gift of Hearing” community event offering no-cost hearing tests and hearing aids for low-income Baltimore-area residents ahead of the holiday season.

This event aims to help more than 30 local people gain access to critical hearing care, with the support of licensed audiologists from Live Better Hearing + Balance.

Event Details

WHAT: “The Gift of Hearing” Event to help more than 30 low-income Baltimore-area individuals receive hearing tests and hearing aids at no cost

WHEN: Friday, November 8, 2024

TIME: 12pm - 3pm ET

WHERE: Enoch Pratt Free Library - Southeast Anchor Branch, 3601 Eastern Ave, Baltimore, MD 21224

WHY: Far too many people forgo hearing health care due to financial limitations, impacting their quality of life and overall well-being. According to recent studies, more than 28 million Americans who could benefit from hearing aids do not use them, often due to high costs. Additionally, untreated hearing loss is associated with higher risks of depression, social isolation, cognitive decline, and decreased earning potential. This event aims to bridge this gap by providing low-income Baltimore-area residents with on-site hearing tests, ear inspections, and free hearing aids to improve quality of life and community health – all free of charge.

About the Live Better Foundation

In our work at Live Better Hearing + Balance, we encountered numerous individuals struggling with hearing loss. However, what struck us most was how many of these individuals were unable to afford the care they desperately needed. This was more than a healthcare issue; it was a matter of quality of life, of being connected to the world around them.

That’s why our mission is simple yet profound: to ensure that no one is denied the opportunity to hear better because of financial limitations. We believe that quality hearing care is not just a service but a fundamental right that should be accessible to all, regardless of their economic status.

If you or a loved one can not afford hearing aids, we are here to help. Please download and fill out the application form to determine your eligibility.
