M.A.D. "One Step at a Time" events are community-gathered runs put into place by local volunteers with the help, direction and support of M.A.D. One Step at a Time. With community M.A.D. chapters established around the country, the goal and mission is to raise hearing health awareness and support a particular need in the local community. With the community coming together, we create a wholesome and fun environment where everybody makes a difference in not only their local communities but around the world.
The purpose of these events is to help make a difference and establish unity and mutual understanding between local businesses/sponsors and the deaf and hard of hearing community. With this mission and purpose in mind our goal is to keep the majority of the funds raised in the local communities and also to the Olive Osmond Perpetual Hearing Fund, where it will be allocated and catered to the needs of children around the world.
The M.A.D.: Making A Difference "One Step at a Time" program is a global initiative that encourages participants from around the world to help make a difference not only in their own lives, but also in the lives of others. The M.A.D. “One Step at a Time” is endorsed by world-renowned entertainer Donny Osmond.
M.A.D. One Step at a Time stands ready to align forces with organizations such as the Olive Osmond Perpetual Hearing Fund, which has a desire and a willing heart to help make a difference ‘One Ear at a Time.’
Together, we can raise awareness and funding for the deaf and hard of hearing both locally and worldwide.
All M.A.D. Runs around the world are Charitable Runs
M.A.D. One Step at a Time has partnered with the Olive Osmond Perpetual Hearing Fund. The OOPHF has a big impact on childrens lives around the world and right here in your local community.
About the Foundation
The Olive Osmond Perpetual Hearing Fund’s mission is to promote hearing-health awareness by providing educational resources and accommodating the needs of the deaf and hard-of-hearing.
The Olive Osmond Perpetual Hearing Fund is a non-profit 501c3, founded in late 2010 to raise deaf awareness and promote hearing educational services by providing others with better hearing in honor of Olive Osmond, the matriarch of the performing Osmond family. The foundation’s goal is to donate its time and resources to assist the deaf and hard-of-hearing and lead the way to help thousands of men, women and children worldwide so they will have a chance to reach their greatest dreams and aspirations in life.
Since 2010, the Olive Osmond Perpetual Hearing Fund has raised awareness around the world and helped over 2,000 children receive the gift of hearing. Supported by many volunteers, programs, organizations and donors around the world, the foundation continues to raise awareness and funding to help the millions of deaf and hard-of-hearing worldwide.
With the Osmond family as its backbone, all the best products, resources, hearing aids and hearing professionals will be brought to children in need. The Olive Osmond Perpetual Hearing Fund will partner with hearing health programs, both nationally and worldwide. By utilizing and combining our resources, we can help so many more to hear.
