What your support can do

The cost of a Cochlear implant and associated post-operative treatment, for the first year, is up to $50,000 per candidate.  Since the cost of schooling at a full time specialist education service for children can total $200,000 the implant brings an immediate net gain of at least $160,000 per child.

Your support can make a lifetime of difference to children and adults in the Southern region because it will make treatment so much more accessible and significantly reduce family stress.
