Aid the Silent

07/31/2026

The other day, we shared Pastor Ashton's story and how he faithfully serves alongside Aid the Silent, helping us further our mission and make a difference in the lives of deaf and hard of hearing children and families.

When Pastor Ashton reached out to ask if we could help repair his 11-year-old hearing aids, our team knew we wanted to do more.

Instead of simply fixing his old hearing aids, we surprised him with a brand-new pair of state-of-the-art hearing aids.

Pastor Ashton has poured so much of himself into serving others, and it was an honor to give back to someone who has given so much. We know these new hearing aids will help him continue sharing hope, serving his community, and making an even greater impact for years to come.

This is what your support makes possible. Because of the generosity of our donors, we're able to change lives not only for the children we serve, but also for the incredible people who help make our mission possible.

Thank you for helping us create moments like this.

This year, we were also fortunate to award a partial Philip & Barbara Green - Aid the Silent Student Scholarship to one outstanding student.

🎉We are proud to recognize Ryan as this year's partial scholarship recipient. 🎉

This fall, Ryan will be attending the University of North Texas to study Communication Sciences and Disorders, with the goal of becoming a Pediatric Audiologist.

Having experienced hearing loss himself, Ryan is passionate about giving back by helping children and families navigate their own hearing journeys with compassion, understanding, and expert care. His dedication to service, leadership, and academic excellence has prepared him well for this next chapter, and we know he will make a lasting impact on countless lives.

Pathway Update!

Confidence changes everything.

Samantha’s family shared that she is now able to communicate and advocate for herself much more easily. With access to her hearing devices, home life has become more comfortable, and she feels more confident in everyday situations.

Helping a child find their voice and confidence is what a pathway is all about. We are so proud of Samantha and honored to be part of her journey!

If you would like to help support more children like Samantha, you can make a donation at www.aidthesilent.com/donate

✨ Three incredible days of VBS filled with learning, laughter, friendship and faith! 🙌

The Deaf are the third-largest unreached people group in the world when it comes to the Gospel, making accessible opportunities like this so important. 🤟

We are incredibly thankful for Cornerstone Church and its continued commitment to including Deaf and hard-of-hearing kids. 🩷 Aid the Silent partners with Cornerstone Church to provide sign language interpreting, live captioning and bilingual buddies, giving every child the opportunity to participate, connect and experience the God's goodness. ✝️

Thank you to our volunteers, families and everyone who helps create a place where every child is welcomed, valued and included. 🫶

At Aid the Silent, we believe every Deaf and hard-of-hearing child deserves the opportunity to communicate, learn, and thrive. 🤟💗

Every day, we work alongside children and families by providing Deaf Resources, supporting Deaf Education, and strengthening Deaf Ministry.

Together, we're helping remove barriers to communication and creating a more inclusive future for the Deaf community.
