EXO Chanyeol Makes Donation to ‘Snail of Love’ to Help Support Deaf Children’s Implant Surgery
On October 29, the Snail of Love, a non-profit organization that supports the hearing-impaired children, revealed that EXO’s Chanyeol had made a donation to help aid the cost of cochlear implant surgery for deaf children.
Snail of Love also revealed that Chanyeol has been steadily making donations to the organization since the beginning of this year.
Back in January, Chanyeol had applied to become a regular sponsor to Snail of Love, saying that he would like to help support deaf children and aid the costs of their cochlear implant surgery.

While making regular donations every month, Chanyeol also made additional donations that amount to 16 million won (around $16,300 USD) three times back in February, July, and October.
Thanks to Chanyeol’s support and regular donations, Snail of Love reported that two deaf children have now gained their hearing abilities. One of the children had undergone surgery for a cochlear implant and is undergoing speech rehabilitation treatments, while the second child is scheduled to undergo the same surgery soon.
“The second most common disability is hearing impairment. Every year, one to two out of 1,000 newborns are born with hearing loss, but even these children can learn to speak and hear after undergoing a cochlear implant surgery,” a representative of Snail of Love said.

The representative continued, “His [Chanyeol] interest and donations are a great strength for the families suffering from hearing impairment in these economically difficult circumstances. We would like to thank Park Chanyeol for his warm donations for the deaf children even while he is serving in the military.”
Meanwhile, Snail of Love is currently conducting a “Sound Gift” campaign to help support deaf people with cochlear implant surgery and speech rehabilitation treatments.
