The Western Pennsylvania Lions Hearing Foundation has no paid personnel. The Executive Medical Director, and the Lions board members are totally a volunteer group. This enables the Foundation to return all resources to individuals in need of assistance. The Foundation relies solely on donations from Lions Clubs and grants from other sources.
The Western Pennsylvania Lions Hearing Foundation Fellowship has been established to help provide funding for the continuance of providing hearing aids for individuals in need. By naming a person a WPLHF Fellow your contribution goes toward helping those with hearing challenges be able to once again hear and communicate with the world around them.
For a $250.00 donation the recipient of the fellowship will receive a lapel pin and plaque indicating them as a fellow. The recipient of this award need not be a Lion. Anyone who supports the process of improving hearing can be honored with this award.
Financial support from contributors, like you, is the Foundation's only source of funds. Your contribution can help ensure that there will be adequate funding to continue providing service for deaf and hard of hearing individuals. The Foundation will also accept donated hearing aids.
If you, your Lions Club or organization would like a presentation or if you are interested in making a donation contact the chairperson (director) in your Lions District.
