What We Offer

Every service, completely free.

Six specialist programmes — hearing care, therapy, vision support, and community outreach — all delivered at no cost to the families who need them.

Every service listed below is provided completely free of charge. All administrative costs are covered by our industry partner, J.M. Wickramarachchi & Company (Pvt) Ltd — so 100% of donations go directly to children.

Hearing Care Services

Hearing is the foundation of speech, learning, and connection.

Hearing Care

Free Hearing Testing

Early identification of hearing loss is critical for a child's speech and language development. The earlier a child receives a diagnosis, the sooner intervention can begin — and the better the outcome.

WISH Foundation provides comprehensive hearing assessments to detect hearing impairments at the earliest possible stage. Our clinical team uses professional-grade equipment to assess hearing across all frequencies and deliver accurate, actionable results.

  • Comprehensive hearing assessments for children and adults
  • Early diagnosis to inform therapy and intervention pathways
  • Available as part of community screening camps
  • Completely free of charge

Who this is for: Any child or family concerned about hearing. No referral needed.

Cochlear Implant Support

Cochlear implants are life-changing technology — but they require consistent, expert support to function effectively. Without proper maintenance, even the best device cannot reach its potential.

  • Cochlear implant maintenance and servicing
  • Device troubleshooting and technical support
  • Guidance for families managing implant systems at home

Vision Care Services

Because learning begins with seeing clearly.

Vision Care

Spectacles & Vision Support

Many children in underserved communities suffer from poor vision due to lack of access to eye care. Poor eyesight that goes uncorrected affects learning, confidence, and participation in school.

WISH Foundation provides prescription spectacles and reading glasses through our vision care programmes and community screening camps, ensuring children can see clearly and learn effectively.

  • Prescription spectacles for children and adults in need
  • Reading glasses provision
  • Vision screening as part of community outreach camps
  • Eye care through corporate CSR partnerships

Who this is for: Children and adults who need vision correction but cannot afford eye care.

Therapy & Development Services

The therapy that helps children find their voice.

Therapy

Auditory Verbal Therapy (AVT)

Auditory Verbal Therapy is a highly specialised early intervention programme designed to help children with hearing impairment develop listening and spoken language skills through focused, play-based techniques.

AVT is particularly significant for children who use cochlear implants or hearing aids. It teaches the brain to make sense of the sounds delivered by these devices, helping children develop natural speech and language rather than relying on visual cues alone.

  • Structured, one-on-one therapy sessions
  • Play-based, child-friendly learning methods
  • Parent involvement — we coach families, not just children
  • Listening-focused speech and language development
  • Delivered by experienced, qualified therapists

Who this is for: Children with hearing impairment, particularly those using cochlear implants or hearing aids, who need support developing spoken language.

Speech & Language Development

Speech therapy helps children develop the skills they need to communicate clearly, build relationships, and participate fully in school and society. It plays a vital role in helping children integrate into mainstream education.

Our speech therapy programmes are tailored to each child's individual needs, supporting development of speech clarity, vocabulary, language processing, and social communication skills.

  • Clear speech development
  • Language comprehension and expression
  • Communication confidence and social skills
  • Support for children integrating into mainstream education

Who this is for: Children with hearing impairment, communication difficulties, or delayed speech development.

Community Outreach

Taking care to the communities that need it.

Outreach

Optical & Hearing Screening Camps

Many families in Sri Lanka and beyond have limited access to specialist healthcare services. Screening camps allow us to reach these communities directly — detecting problems early, providing care on the spot, and directing people toward further support where needed.

Our mobile clinical teams include optometrists and audiologists who can deliver comprehensive vision and hearing screening, fitted spectacles, and initial hearing assessments in a single session.

  • Mobile optical and hearing screening camps
  • Conducted independently or in partnership with organisations
  • Corporate CSR health camp partnerships available
  • International outreach — we have reached communities in the Maldives
  • Follow-up care pathways for anyone identified as needing further support

Who this is for: Community organisations, schools, employers, NGOs, and councils who want to bring screening care to their people.
