The World Hearing Day is an annual global event to raise awareness about hearing loss, promote ear and hearing care, and take action to address hearing loss and related issues. Every year, this day is celebrated on March 3, with a specific theme on which the World Health Organization (World Health Organization) and its partners carry out activities.
This year, our partner Hans Anders his long-term partnership with the Starkey Hearing Foundation in the spotlight. An online campaign has been set up in which Hans Anders calls on all hearing aid wearers and their family and friends to hand in old hearing aids. With 25 years of experience in hearing care, Hans Anders knows better than anyone the importance of good hearing in order to participate in society. Promoting accessible hearing care is perfectly in line with the strategy to make quality products affordable for as many people as possible.
The 10-year partnership with the Starkey Hearing Foundation contributes to this strategy. Hans Anders makes it easy for customers to return old hearing aids to more than 400 stores in the Netherlands and Belgium. The submitted hearing aids are collected at the central Service Center in Gorinchem and then sent to the Starkey Hearing Foundation. There, they are refurbished and redistributed during international missions to areas with no or limited access to hearing care.
Over the past 40 years, the Starkey Hearing Foundation has given the gift of hearing to nearly 1.5 million people around the world, inspired by co-founders Bill and Tani Austin's commitment to sustainable, community-based hearing care and supported by many generous donors. During these missions in more than 100 countries, the Starkey Hearing Foundation helped people hear through hearing aid tests, modifications, and donations.
As Hans Anders partner, we are extremely proud of the collaboration between Hans Anders and the Starkey Hearing Foundation. This unique collaboration not only contributes to the pursuit of accessible eye and hearing care, but also to reducing waste and extending the lifespan of hearing aids. This initiative fits seamlessly with Hans Anders' sustainability efforts, and we're excited to be part of a partnership that has such a positive impact on people's lives and our planet.
