This past Saturday, 412 supporters came together for our Home Run for Hearing Loss event at the Cincinnati Reds — and because of you, the incredible children from Ohio Valley Voices had the unforgettable opportunity to sing and sign the national anthem on the field!

Your support isn't just helping us sell tickets — it's helping amplify voices and hands that deserve to be seen and heard. Thank you for making moments like this possible.
