About the Olive Osmond Perpetual Hearing Fund
The mother of the famous singing Osmond's, known affectionately world-wide as "Mother Osmond," made a life-long commitment to supporting new research and innovation toward improving the quality of life for the hearing impaired. The journey began with the discovery that her two oldest sons Virl and Tom were severely hearing impaired. Merrill Osmond's 2nd son, Justin, was born with the same severe and profound hearing sensorial-neural hearing loss from which his uncles suffered. The support and love of the original four singing Osmond Brothers was manifest when they began their career in order to raise money for the best hearing devices available for their brothers. Justin was very close to his grandmother Olive and loved hearing her stories about helping deaf children. Sensing her determination to aid the hearing impaired, Justin dedicated himself to continue her passion in building her dream to greater heights, thus the establishment of the 'Olive Osmond Perpetual Hearing Fund'. Justin continues to carry on Olive's legacy in helping provide the Gift of Better Hearing to children worldwide.
