✨ Jennifer Clark, Director of Community Engagement for the Dallas Hearing Foundation, was honored to attend the Frisco ISD Connect the Dots Event last week.
It was a wonderful opportunity to meet families exploring transition services and resources for their students as they prepare for the next chapter of life. We love connecting with families, sharing support options, and helping ensure students with hearing loss have the tools they need to thrive in school, work, and beyond.

Last Friday, Dallas Hearing Foundation had the privilege of being represented by Jennifer Clark, Director of Community Engagement, and Jenny Peterson at the Hunt Cares Golf Tournament.
We were honored to be one of six charities selected to receive funds raised through this incredible event. A special thank you to Renee Oberle for kindly nominating DHF and helping make this opportunity possible.
Jennifer and Jenny had a wonderful time meeting golfers at Hole 18, where participants had the chance to compete for the longest drive prize. A big shoutout to Joe Bauman for being so welcoming and amazing throughout the day.
It was truly special to connect with golfers, Hunt employees, vendors, family members, and friends who all came together to support meaningful causes. Dallas Hearing Foundation is grateful and honored to have been part of such a fun and impactful event.

✨ DHF Throwback: 2018 ✨
We love taking a walk down memory lane—and 2018 was a year full of life-changing moments at Dallas Hearing Foundation.
From the anticipation of cochlear implant surgeries, to the emotional first activations, to the countless smiles from families experiencing sound in a whole new way… it’s a year we’ll never forget. 💙
Every recipient represents more than a procedure—they represent a journey. A journey of hope, resilience, and transformation. And we are so honored to walk alongside these incredible families every step of the way.
Because when sound is restored, lives are forever changed.
Here’s to the moments, the milestones, and the memories that remind us why we do what we do. 💫
