Imagine holding your newborn and wondering if they will ever hear you say, “I love you.” Imagine missing out on a job opportunity because you couldn’t follow the conversation or withdrawing from social gatherings because you felt left out. For thousands of Wisconsinites living with untreated hearing loss, this is daily life.
It’s closer than many of us think. Someone in your family, among your friends, or in your workplace may be struggling with hearing loss, and, too often, they don’t know where to turn for help. At HEAR Wisconsin, we change these stories. Every day, we break down the barriers that hearing loss creates by restoring connections, opportunities, and hope.
That’s why we’re inviting you to join us for HEAR Wisconsin’s Celebration of the Century: A Sound Story on Thursday, May 28, 2026, at 5:30 p.m. at the Baird Center. Guests will be welcomed with a lively cocktail reception, extending to the outdoor patio, followed by an engaging program and dinner. Enjoy a truly immersive evening as you mingle with colleagues and friends, celebrating 100 years of impact while looking ahead to an even stronger future of serving more people and strengthening our community.
