Ear of the Lion Foundation of California and Nevada is a non-profit, 501c3 foundation, formed in 1982 by the Lions Clubs of California and Nevada. Our purpose is to provide hearing aids for the needy hearing impaired in your community. Unfortunately, we cannot do it alone.
When a patient is approved for our program, they must be sent to an Audiologist or Hearing Aid Dispenser as local to them as possible to be fit.
The Audiologist/Dispenser decides what type of hearing aid will be best for their hearing loss, and if necessary, impressions are made of the patient’s ear cavity and sent to the earmold manufacturer (We use Starkey and Westone) to have earmolds made. The Audiologist or Dispenser then calls our office to order reconditioned hearing aids from our Bank. Once the aids have been reconditioned, they are then sent back to the Audiologist or Dispenser for a final fitting with the client. We are able to pay the Audiologist or Dispenser a fitting fee for their services. Because we are 501c3 non-profit, any additional charges can be taken off your taxes as a donation.
