Today, 15 November 2024, marked a life-changing moment for Bayu, a bright young student from Pengalusan Hamlet. Since he was three years old, Bayu has faced the challenge of deafness. However, today, he received a hearing aid from YPK Bali that opens up a world of new possibilities.
After a successful trial with the hearing aid in October and completing the necessary screening, Bayu was declared eligible to receive this device free of charge. The official handover occurred at 8 a.m. this morning at Gedung Graha Lotring in Kuta, Badung, bringing immense joy and hope to Bayu and his family.
We first met Bayu during our annual ENT check-ups in Ban Village, in collaboration with YPK Bali. Without this program, his condition might have gone unnoticed. Now, with his new hearing aid, Bayu can better connect with his friends and have the chance to more fully participate in class, understand his teacher’s explanations, and engage in activities he once struggled with. This opportunity paves the way for a brighter future.
Milestones like these are only possible with your support. Together, we're creating opportunities for children like Bayu to live fuller, more connected lives.
