As part of its partnership with the team’s Changemakers platform, the company supported a local youth organization and provided hearing protection to fans.
Starkey recently joined the Minnesota Lynx WNBA team for its Changemakers Night, an event focused on mentorship, leadership, and community impact. The evening supported Girls Taking Action, a local organization dedicated to empowering young women and creating opportunities for future leaders.
As part of the event, Starkey promoted hearing health awareness by providing complimentary hearing protection to fans attending the game to encourage safe listening practices in loud environments.
Starkey employees attended the event to support the partnership and highlight the importance of investing in community programs.
“Creating meaningful change starts with coming together to support and uplift others,” says Karen Spaeth, chief marketing officer at Starkey, in a release. “We are proud to partner with the Minnesota Lynx Changemakers platform and support organizations like Girls Taking Action that are helping young women build confidence, leadership skills, and a strong sense of community. It was inspiring to celebrate alongside our employees and see the impact these partnerships can have.”
The company’s partnership with the Minnesota Lynx Changemakers platform is part of its broader community initiatives, which include Starkey Cares. These programs aim to support individuals and strengthen communities.
