What we've been up to
Concerts, competitions, features, and milestones from chapters across the country.
The St. John's Chapter organized a fully student-run charity concert, and it was a huge success! We want to give a big thank you to all the talented performers who took the stage and everyone who joined us for the event.
In April 2024, Hope For Hearing was featured at Upper Canada College's annual spring musical concert, raising another $1,500 for Sunnybrook's Cochlear Implant Department. We're thankful to all the parents, students, and volunteers who helped make this event an incredible success. A special thanks to Dr. Ben Chan, Nuit Bleue's opening keynote speaker, who is an experienced audiologist at People's Hearing.
Hope For Hearing was selected as one of the top 10 youth organizations to present at the Canada Youth Club Summit, a youth leadership event with Canada's top youth leaders. Check out some pictures taken of Hope For Hearing at CYCS, as well as features in media coverage and news articles!
The Kitchener Waterloo Hope For Hearing chapter ran their own student-led concert! Renting out a venue, working with sponsors, promoting the event, and ultimately raising over $1,100! We're incredibly grateful to the KW chapter for their efforts and involvement in the Hope For Hearing cause.

🎉 We're thrilled to celebrate a huge milestone with our partner, Sunnybrook Hospital's Cochlear Implant Program, as they reach their 3,000th implant recipient! To mark this incredible achievement, our entire organization is proud to donate towards supporting their life-changing work.
This August, Hope For Hearing was welcomed at Delmanor Northtown's residential home to organize a short music program with student performers. Rather than a fundraiser for our cause, we used this opportunity to spread our love of music to the elderly, as they are disproportionally the most affected by hearing loss.
In April 2023, Hope For Hearing was featured at Upper Canada College's annual spring musical concert, raising $2,000 for Sunnybrook's Cochlear Implant Department. We're incredibly thankful to all of the performers and parents who supported our cause.
