Local first
We look for hearing care providers who already live and practice in the communities we serve. Care that stays is care that lasts.
About us
Founded to close a gap
Between the people who need hearing care and the care itself, there is usually nothing but distance, cost, and the absence of anyone looking to help. Ears to Hear was founded to stand in that gap.
Our story
We help bridge the gap
Ears to Hear was founded to help bridge the gap between individuals in need and the life-changing hearing care and supportive services they may otherwise be unable to access.
By providing financial support, building meaningful partnerships, and connecting resources with areas of great need, Ears to Hear seeks to serve underserved individuals and communities around the world.
But providing hearing aids and services is only part of our mission. Ears to Hear also works to raise awareness of the tremendous unmet need for hearing care and supportive services around the world — and to give others an opportunity to be part of meeting that need.
Our mission
Ears to Hear is committed to expanding access to healthcare, including hearing care and other supportive services, for underserved individuals worldwide. We are committed to breaking barriers of communication and reflecting God’s love through service.

We want everyone to have Ears to Hear.
Matthew 11:15
The name
“Whoever has ears, let them hear.”
It is an invitation and a responsibility. Hearing is how most of us receive love, warning, instruction, and belonging. When that door closes and no one comes to open it, a person loses far more than sound — they lose the classroom, the conversation, the job, the congregation, the table.
Our conviction is simple: the ability to hear should not depend on where you were born or what you can afford. Everyone should have ears to hear.
What guides us
How we try to work
Alongside, not over
Ministries, aid organizations, and churches already serving a community know it better than we ever will. We come alongside the people who are already there.
Faith in practice
We serve because we have been blessed to be able to serve. Care is offered as an expression of God’s love, and it is offered to anyone in need of it, with no regard to beliefs.
Be part of meeting the need.
Prayer, financial support, partnership, service — every one of them moves care closer to someone waiting for it.
