Tani’s Beautiful Day Experience

Not our normal hearing aid fitting. Delores arrived in the ambulance,
comatose, and woke up as soon as I got to a power level 4 and she raised

her hand waved to her family and started trying to talk to her family. The
family exploded into calling her name from every direction, everyone wanted

her to know they were there, they were in sheer joy, they laughed and
celebrated. I can tell you Delores had but hours to live by the sound of her
lungs but at that moment there was happiness by all! Bill was able to stay, I
had to excuse myself because I could not hold back the tears. It makes us
extremely thankful for our health & each and every moment, each and every

day we share together.
Love, Light & Blessings on this very special Thanksgiving Day

STARKEY HEARING
INSTITUTE OPENING

STARKEY HEARING FOUNDATION MADE HISTORY
WITH THE OPENING OF THE UNPRECEDENTED

STARKEY HEARING INSTITUTE ON MAY 17TH, 2016.
Esther Lungu, First Lady of Zambia, Richard Brown, foundation board
chair, Tani Austin foundation co-founder, Keith Becker, senior director
of operations, and Dr. Alfred Mwamba, audiologist and executive
director of Starkey Hearing Institute Zambia lead the ribbon cutting
marking the milestone event as the entity that will deliver hope and
hearing to Africa where there has been little to no professionals to help
the more than 36 million with hearing loss.
Starkey Hearing Foundation is dedicated and has worked diligently
to bring hearing healthcare to the developing world where no help
has existed. This effort continues the vision and legacy of William F.
Austin of providing hearing to those who cannot hear. The opening is
a capstone event of Austin’s more than 50 years of work to bring the
message of peace and understanding through hearing healthcare to
the world with his simple, sustainable, and scalable WFA® Community
Based Hearing HealthCare model.
This model sets a precedent, establishing and shifting the paradigm
that all the world can hear is possible, especially those who live in
underdeveloped countries.
Inspired by Albert Schweitzer’s missionary work when he was a young
man, Mr. Austin set a course to change the world by giving the gift of
hearing, creating Starkey Hearing Foundation with the goal,“So the
World May Hear.”

To date, the Foundation has a global reach of more than 100 countries,
providing more than 1.8 million hearing devices to over 500,000
patients.
Starkey Hearing Foundation has 40 sustainable hearing healthcare
programs around the world, with 94.4% of the workers living in the
communities they work in, which is unprecedented in global hearing
health care today.
To further provide more hearing health care in Africa, the Foundation
partnered with Dr. Mwamba to create an educational program
designed to equip students with the academic rigor, resources,
and tools to advance hearing health care services. Starkey Hearing
Institute in Zambia is opening by training 12 students from nine African
countries, with the goal of providing hearing health care to more than
two million people in Africa by the year 2030.
“900,000 Zambians don’t have hearing care,” Mwamba said. “That is
a scary number. Being in this position where I can be of service and be
part of some very revolutionary work is very exciting.”
Upon receiving a one-year education in hearing instrument sciences,
accredited by International Hearing Society, these specialists will
return to their communities to identify, diagnose, and treat people who
have hearing loss and advocate to prevent hearing loss. The result is
sustained and measureable support of hearing health in communities
worldwide.
This pioneer Starkey Hearing Institute initiative was chosen to
take place in Zambia because of the strong partnership with the
government and incredible support from Zambia’s First Lady, Esther
Lungu.
“This Institute is going to serve all of Africa, and because of Starkey
Hearing Foundation the whole world will be helped,” Mrs. Lungu said.
