Giving

The Hearing Speech & Deaf Center of Greater Cincinnati is committed to serving people of all ages and backgrounds regardless of their ability to pay. We rely on contributions from many sources to help offset the cost of our valued services. Your support can assure that these services are available to all who need them. UNRESTRICTED GIVING AND ANNUAL FUND: Gifts to the Annual Fund can be made at any time throughout the year. This crucial fundraising effort generates much needed operating support. All donations have tax-deductible benefits to you and will be acknowledged in the Annual Report.

MEMORIAL AND TRIBUTE GIFTS: A wonderful opportunity to honor someone or remember a special person. Donations are tax-deductible and will be acknowledged in the Annual Report. If you would like a separate acknowledgement to be sent to the honoree or family, please provide that information (including mailing address) at the time of the donation. We respectfully request that gifts in this category be $25 or greater if you wish for us to send an acknowledgement.

MAJOR GIFTS: The Center maintains an up to date list of current major projects such as building renovations, instrumentation needs, new project start-up costs, etc. The Director of Development and Executive Director are happy to meet with anyone with an interest in making a major gift, including one to our Endowment Fund.

PLANNED GIFTS: The Director of Development can provide planned giving options to meet the needs of our donors, including supporting HSDC well in to the future through bequests and other charitable options.

HEARING AID/ASSITIVE LISTENING DEVICES: Used or unwanted hearing aids in any condition are gratefully accepted as donations by the Hearing Speech & Deaf Center. Behind-the-ear aids that are in good repair, we are able to use them as loaner aids for the preschool children in our programs.
