Join us to Walk and Fundraise or Donate!

This event brings together families and friends, neighbors and work colleagues alike to walk to raise awareness of hearing loss in the general community and to fundraise for DHH support services. Money raised supports services offered at the National level through our HLAA parent organization and locally through HLAA Boston and other DHH service organizations that participate.

For HLAA Boston, funds raised via the Walk4Hearing provide 99% of the resources we have available to serve you and others with hearing loss in the Boston area.

Please Donate to support us at HLAA Boston who are walking for you!!!
