The H.I.K.E. (Hearing Improvement Kids Equipment) Fund is a registered non-profit Canadian charity. It was formed in 1990 as the philanthropic project for Job's Daughters International as a way to provide hearing assistive devices for families and children in need. These grants are awarded to registered audiologists or hearing clinics on behalf of the family's application.
Applications must be accompanied by a prescription for a specific hearing devices and its associated cost quote.
As resources are limited, the grant(s) awarded may not meet the total amount requested. If that is the case, and additional funds are required by the applicant to secure the required device, H.I.K.E. funds will only be granted when they are combined with funds from other sources.
CHEQUES ARE ONLY ISSUED TO THE AUDIOLOGIST OR CLINIC SUPPLYING DEVICES.
