Frequently Asked Questions:

Is my local Walk4Hearing taking place in-person?

Yes! Walkers and teams will meet in-person on Walk Day to celebrate while promoting the importance of hearing health and raising awareness for hearing loss. Your safety is our priority and each location will follow CDC and local public health guidelines.

Find a Walk, register, and invite friends and family to support or join you.

I want to join Walk4Hearing, but there is no Walk in my area.

Good news, you can join any Walk4Hearing location, fundraise, and plan a walk in your neighborhood to support our mission. Review our Walk4Hearing locations and select one to join.
