The annual campaign resulted in 346 hearing care practices in the U.S. and Canada donating 1,000 hearing aids to 500 people, the most in the program’s history.
Shakopee, Minn. – June 1, 2026 – With the help of 346 hearing care practices throughout the United States and Canada, ReSound today announces that 1,000 hearing aids were donated to 500 people as part of the annual Gift of Hearing campaign, which ran from November 2025 through April 2026.
In its sixth year, the Gift of Hearing continues to increase community impact, as these giving results represent all-time highs.
Since 2020, hearing care professionals participating in the Gift of Hearing campaign have donated their time and talents to collectively help 1,963 people.
“The continued growth of the Gift of Hearing campaign has been incredible to see,” said Mikkel Knudsen, President, ReSound North America. “We are proud to partner with hearing care professionals everywhere who are making a real difference in people’s lives. These results speak to the care, generosity, and dedication of this community.”
ReSound partners with hearing care professionals in the annual Gift of Hearing campaign to donate care and technology to deserving people with hearing loss. Each participating practice received ReSound Vivia or ReSound Enzo IA hearing aids to award to a patient determined by that practice.
According to the Hearing Loss Association of America, roughly 48 million Americans have some degree of hearing loss, with an estimated 28.8 million adults who could benefit from hearing aids, but with fewer than 1 in 5 using them.
The 2026-27 Gift of Hearing campaign will return in November 2026.
