We’re thrilled to announce that Sounding Joy has been selected as a recipient of United Way Suncoast’s ACE Grant program, receiving $20,000 in funding to strengthen our capacity and grow our impact.
ACE stands for Access, Capacity, and Equity—three pillars that are at the heart of this transformative grant initiative. Designed for community-serving organizations with annual budgets under $2.1 million, ACE Grants are meant to break down barriers to innovation and fuel the next steps forward.
For Sounding Joy, this grant means we can continue scaling our work to help children gain access to hearing aids and support services—resources their families often can’t afford but desperately need. It gives us space to think bigger, act faster, and reach further.
We’re incredibly grateful to United Way Suncoast for investing in our mission and helping us amplify the joy of hearing for more children and families across our region.
