BEGIN AGAIN is a donate source for your no longer in use hearing aids. The hearing aids will be recycled and distributed to those whose financial means do not allow them to purchase one for him or herself. Your donation can count as a tax write-off. More information is available at The SHOPPE.
Since 1981, The Hearing and Speech Foundation has provided ongoing hearing services to disadvantaged individuals in East Tennessee. Most insurance companies will not pay for hearing and speech services or hearing aids. Through the HSF Indigent Care Program, individuals have the opportunity to receive hearing aids and hearing and speech services they would otherwise go without. In nearly three decades, HSF has given the gift of hearing to thousands of patients in East Tennessee and beyond.
HSF needs your help…
If you have unused hearing aids, they may be donated to HSF for reconditioning and fitting on a patient in our
Indigent Care Program.
Even if an aid is too damaged for repair, it may still be returned to the manufacturer for a credit toward a future purchase. All donated hearing aids are considered a
charitable contribution to the Foundation.
What you can do….
Call (865) 977.0981 or email info@handsf.org to make
arrangements to donate your hearing aids. You can mail in your hearing aids, have them picked up or drop them off at an authorized donor center.
The Foundation is unable to make value determinations for donated hearing aids. It is recommended that you keep your receipt of purchase as evidence of the original hearing aid cost. For additional information about donations to charitable 501(c)3 organizations, go to www.irs.gov and click on charitites and nonprofits, then click on contributors. The contributor’s page contains all the IRS information available about donations to charitable nonprofits. The generosity of donors, like yourself, enables HSF to provide this valuable service to East Tennesseans with hearing loss. On behalf of those individuals, the Foundation extends heart-felt thanks to you.
