SALT LAKE CITY, July 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Sonic Innovations, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNCI) is launching a new program in cooperation with the Armed Forces Foundation. For each Sonic Innovations' Velocity hearing aid purchased, the company will donate up to $50 to the Armed Forces Foundation from now through October 1, 2008.

"As a U.S.-based company, Sonic Innovations is strongly committed to acknowledging the sacrifices our military personnel have made throughout the years," said Sonic Innovations CEO Sam Westover. "The Department of Veterans Affairs has stated that hearing damage is the number one disability in the war on terror.

So we decided to establish a fund to support our troops through the sales of our hearing aids. Whether they need help with a hearing loss, educational expenses or emergency funds, Sonic Innovations hopes that our fund will make a difference in helping many service men and women improve their quality of life."

Sonic Innovations is the largest publicly traded U.S.-based hearing aid manufacturer. Velocity hearing aids represent the company's premium line of digital products with hands-free, universal features that allow smooth transitions as the environment changes, adaptive directionality, adaptive feedback cancellation and auto-telephone.
