🦌🎨 Crafting, Listening, & Learning! 🎨🦌

During a recent teletherapy session, Alanna had a wonderful time making a reindeer hat! As she worked on her festive craft, she practiced new vocabulary and following directions, building important listening and language skills along the way. 👂✨

Hands-on activities like this help make therapy fun, engaging, and meaningful. Great job, Alanna—we loved seeing your creativity shine! 🌟

🫧⛰️ Big Fun for Little Ears! ⛰️🫧

Wolfe is now a 4-year-old preschooler and has just received his Cochlear Implant—what an exciting milestone! During a recent teletherapy session, Wolfe practiced his listening skills while creating a “bubble mountain.”

He loved the activity so much that he wanted to keep building bubbles for the entire session! 🎉 Activities like this keep therapy engaging and help turn listening practice into joyful learning moments.

Great job, Wolfe! We can’t wait to see all the progress ahead. 🌟👂

🍪✨ Sweet Sounds & Sweet Treats! ✨🍪

During a recent Aural Rehabilitation Teletherapy session, Juliana had a blast baking cookies! While rolling and cutting out her dough, she worked on word discrimination, carefully listening to identify which cookie cutter shape to use next. 👂🍪

Juliana is still early in her cochlear implant (CI) journey. She has single-sided deafness (SSD) and experienced a sudden hearing loss back in March of this year. Moments like these show how therapy can be both meaningful and fun as she builds her listening skills one step (and cookie!) at a time. 💛

Way to go, Juliana—we’re so proud of your progress! 🌟

🎉 Graduate Spotlight: Jethro 🎉
Jethro is doing amazing things! He is now thriving in a mainstream 6th grade classroom, doing well academically, and staying active on the tennis court. 🎾

Recently, Jethro played in his first mini tennis tournament—and won all four matches in one day! Some of those matches lasted over an hour, showing just how focused and determined he is. 💪

Jethro is truly a persistent and hardworking young man, and we’re so proud of all he has accomplished.

✨ As another exciting milestone, Jethro’s cochlear implant processors were recently upgraded to SONNET 3, supporting him as he continues to grow, learn, and succeed.

Way to go, Jethro—we can’t wait to see what’s next! 🌟

Imagine waking up tomorrow and not being able to hear. What would you miss the most?

That’s the question posed to Kiwanians at the White Oak Golden K meeting on Thursday by Jonathan Brilling, outreach and development director for the Auditory Verbal Center based in Atlanta. Music, a spouse saying “I love you,” grandkids and sports were all things mentioned.

“These are sounds that all of us sometimes take for granted,” Brilling said. “When you start to lose your hearing, it never comes back.”

He asked if anyone there used a hearing aid, and quite a number of people raised their hands. Hearing loss is almost inevitable, Brilling said.

Meryl Miller, a doctor of audiology and president of the Georgia Academy of Audiology, said one-third of people over 65 have hearing loss that needs to be addressed — and double that for people 75 and older.

💬 Most families are shocked to learn their child has hearing loss — and they need guidance, hope, and expert care right away.

More than 90% of deaf and hard of hearing children are born to hearing parents who often have no idea where to begin.

Your support ensures that families receive compassionate coaching, resources, and the tools they need to help their child thrive and learning listening and spoken language.

Turn Your Investments Into Impact 💛 Not all gifts come from your wallet. Some of the most powerful ways to give are also the smartest for your finances.

At the Auditory Verbal Center, your support helps children with hearing loss learn to listen and speak — unlocking a lifetime of connection. Here are two win-win ways to make an impact:

✨ From Your IRA (Ages 70½+)
Donate directly from your IRA — up to $100,000 each year — and it can count toward your RMD while reducing your taxable income.

📈 Appreciated Stock
Give stock that’s increased in value and receive a deduction for the full amount without paying capital gains tax.

Every dollar (and every share!) changes lives — helping children hear their first words, attend mainstream schools, and thrive in a world of sound. 🌎💬
