   A Good Samaritan from Holland

  Mr. Martein Weber is a deaf educator in Holland having special bonds with   Kerala. He had some funds which few of his friends in Holland had   donated.   They wanted him to utilize the fund for welfare schemes for the   hearing   handicapped in Kerala.
  Mr. Martein happened to visit NISH and was highly impressed with the   pre   school and parent guidance program. However, the body level hearing   aids worn   by the children and the inconvenience caused concerned him.   He decided to   utilize the fund he had with him to buy 'Behind the Ear'   hearings aids for the   children. He gave the amount of Rs. 1,25,000/- in the   first instance and Rs   90,000/- the second time.
  Ten children of Pre School are using BTE hearing aids sponsored by Mr.   Martein.
