Have you been thinking about volunteering your skills and making a real difference to the lives of people who need a helping hand?  Volunteer work can provide you with diversity and new skills as well as great satisfaction from sharing and encouraging others and knowing you're making a difference.

CICADA Australia Inc. is a completely independent non-profit support organisation staffed by volunteers. Our aim is to help hearing impaired Australians achieve the optimum, tailor-made solution to improve their hearing.

Our plans are big - they need to be. There is no one organisation, no one place, no one website, where a hearing impaired Australian can go to get all the information about the different options available to improve hearing. There is plenty of information out there if you have hours and hours, a lot of patience and the skill to sleuth it down.

We aim to change that. To be the place any hearing impaired Australian can turn to for unbiased, independent information on all their options to find a solution that is right for them - no hidden agendas.

Our plans are big - and we need help!

We'd LOVE to hear from you if you can help - in any way - big or small.  Please email us by clicking here.

Or if you'd like to help but aren't able to give your time we'd be very grateful for any financial donation you can offer and as a registered charity all donations over $2 are tax deductible.
