Solar-Powered Hearing Aid Brings Jobs to Deaf People, Sound to Disadvantaged

This is a heart warming story about a technology that makes sense on so many levels. The hearing aid can be charged by solar power. The cost is $100 and deaf folks are employed to make the device.

As someone who is loosing my hearing, I hope this technology can come to America soon.
