Grace VanderWaal holds a young child close during her recent trip to Kenya with the Starkey Hearing Foundation last week.

The 14-year-old “City Song” musician was able to experience first-hand the life changing moment when someone hears for the first time.

“He just heard his voice for the first time,” Grace says after helping one child get his implant. “That’s pretty cool.”

Grace added on Twitter, “Feeling very jet lagged but I had such a good day today! I met so many amazing people in the village of Kisumu in Kenya with @starkeycares … great start to this trip!”

Starkey Hearing Foundation gives the gift of hearing to people in need around the world.
