The work we do is life-changing. As a registered charity operating as a not-for-profit, we aim to keep our fees and costs to a minimum in an effort to make cochlear implant technology accessible to as many people as possible.
Our Valued Partners and Sponsors
If your business or organisation would like to donate to SCIP and enable profoundly deaf children and adults to access cochlear implant technology and return to a life of hearing, we’d love to hear from you. Contact us here.
Lives we've helped change
Be inspired by the stories of our patients who have connected or reconnected to the world of hearing.
Help Us to Change Lives
Because demand often exceeds Whaikaha (Ministry of Disabled People) funding, we look to fundraising and charitable donations to help those in real need.
