2009 Walk 4 Hearing
Since its formation in 2006, Walk4Hearing has raised over one million
dollars for programs and services for people with hearing loss,
and has grown into
the largest awareness and fundraising event for the Hearing Loss Association
of America (HLAA). Collaborating with local HLAA chapters, Walk4Hearing™ educates
the general public about hearing loss while easing the associated stigma.
Striving to make hearing loss a public health issue, thousands of people
of all ages,
races, and backgrounds have come together to display their compassion for
the cause and to make hearing loss an issue of national concern.
It was a beautiful day on Saturday September 26 for two-legged and
four-legged walkers. We had great turnout for our team and we reached
our $2,000
fundraising
goal for DHCC. HLA, the major sponsor of the walk, surpassed their
goal of $50,000 and were at $68,000 at the last posting. Thanks to
all the walker, donors and to Joy Harris and Mary Boas Hayes who volunteered
to interpret.
