Background
AGE: 21
COMMUNITY: Ojo de Agua, Yuscaran
DIAGNOSTIC: Hearing loss
Irene is 21 yrs, she has a twin sister, went to high school and already graduated. She was born with a defect in both of her ears, giving her a hearing loss problem. Irene has had hearing aids in the past but has since grown out of them. Communication is very difficult for Irene without the help of her hearing aids.
Irene went with her mother to a medical brigade in Ojo de Agua, with hopes of finding the hearing aid devices she needs, but unfortunately we do not carry these devices on brigades.
Next Steps
We are hoping to help Irene through the referral program, and start raising funds in order to buy the hearing aids she needs.
Call to Action
Please help support our efforts to raise the funds to help Irene get a new pair of hearing aids.
