Sounding Joy is a nonprofit organization, founded by Christy Vogel, to help people with mild to moderate permanent hearing loss who do not qualify for financial assistance or cannot afford hearing aid technology. It partners with audiologists, corporate sponsors and donors to provide professionally fitted and programmed hearing aids to those who cannot otherwise get them so they can reach their full potential. All donations are fully tax-deductible.
