Since many years our foundation supports Doctor Lukas Eberle, ear, nose and throat specialist in his efforts and activities in favor of the ear affected population in Nepal. He and his international team (ENT physicians, surgeons and audiologists) are organizing two-week camps, to treat about 1’000 patients and to form local specialists.

In order to share his manifold experiences he gives a presentation on Tuesday, 9 November 2010 from 19.15 in the Luegeten in Pfäffikon SZ.

Also our entire Board of trustees will be present, whereby Rolf Frischknecht, founder and honorary member of the Board brings us good news from the Emerald Hill School for the Deaf in Harare, Zimbabwe.

The annual Christmas market in Zollikon at the end of November 2009 was an impressive premier for our Foundation from two perspectives. Firstly, we were invited as a guest of the Zollikon Kiwanis Club to their appearance for the benefit of our Foundation. We thank the Kiwanis Club wholeheartedly for this and were delighted to see many friends and acquaintances and in particular the Kiwanis Club members.

The second premier was that we were able to appear under our new name as the ‘Right to Hear Foundation’ (formerly the Rolf Frischknecht Foundation).

The many discussions with interested visitors show us again and again how important it is to be able to hear and understand well in today's world and society and how true our slogan really is: ‘Poor sight separates from things. Poor hearing separates from people.’
