Change Shajeel’s Life with Hearing Aids
Shajeel Yousaf's Story
Shajeel Yousaf, a 36-year-old man from Gujranwala, has been struggling in silence due to a painful condition. He is suffering from a persistent infection in both ears. He went to a doctor, who performed a thorough examination and diagnosed Shajeel with moderate to severe hearing loss. Once a lively man, Shajeel now finds it difficult to engage in conversations and fulfill his responsibilities due to this condition. His doctor has advised him to use hearing aids to regain his ability to hear and communicate effectively. However, the cost of the hearing aids is beyond Shajeel’s reach.
If Shajeel doesn’t receive hearing aids, his condition may worsen over time. It may lead to complete hearing loss. He may continue facing communication barriers at work.
Shajeel lives in a rented house with his four family members. With their meager household income, they hardly cover the monthly house rent of PKR 22,000, and utility bills amounting to around PKR 10,000. With rising inflation and household expenses, there is barely anything left to save for medical needs. The family has no savings, and the cost of hearing aids is simply beyond their means.
With sad expressions, Shajeel said:
“Each day, I struggle to hear my colleagues, my family, and the world around me. It’s frustrating and painful. I just want to live a normal life again, without constantly asking others to repeat themselves. I can’t afford these hearing aids and need your support during this difficult time.”
Hearing aids would not only restore his ability to hear but also his dignity and peace of mind. Your generous contributions can bring back the sounds that he longs to hear.

Shajeel Yousaf's Story
Shajeel Yousaf, a 36-year-old man from Gujranwala, was suffering from a persistent infection in both ears. It gradually led to a moderate to severe hearing loss. Once an energetic and social individual, Shajeel found it increasingly difficult to engage in daily conversations, perform simple tasks, and fulfill his responsibilities. Concerned about his declining condition, Shajeel visited a nearby hospital, where a doctor conducted a thorough examination and confirmed the severity of his hearing loss. The doctor recommended hearing aids to restore his hearing and enable him to lead a normal life again. Unfortunately, the cost of the recommended hearing aids was far beyond Shajeel’s financial capacity.
Shajeel lives in a small rented house with his family of four. He, along with his mother, contributes to the household expenses. However, once they cover their rent and utility bills, there is hardly anything left to set aside for essential medical treatments. During this difficult time, his family turned to Transparent Hands and asked for help. Upon listening to their concerns, we swiftly registered Shajeel’s case.
On May 10, 2025, Shajeel’s procedure was performed at Surgimed Hospital in Lahore by Dr. Binish Khan. STARKEY EVOLV BTE 2000 Power Plus Hearing Aids with Earmolds were inserted in both ears. The hearing aid was perfectly customized to suit his level of hearing loss, and the fitting went smoothly.
Shajeel said with tears of happiness in his eyes: “For a long time, I felt like I was living in a world of silence. Now, I can hear again, talk with my family, and work confidently. Thank you for bringing sounds back into my life.”
Shajeel’s life has changed for the better. He can now communicate with ease, work more efficiently, and enjoy time with his loved ones without barriers.
His family extends their deepest gratitude to you for making this life-changing gift of hearing possible for Shajeel.
