Ear Community hosts picnics every year around the world helping bring Microtia and Atresia families together. This year’s picnics will take place in the United States in Orlando, Florida/ Fullerton, California/ Calgary, Canada/ Edina, Minnesota/ Broomfield, Colorado/ New Orleans, Louisiana and Laval, Quebec Canada! It is very exciting for many families! Everyone enjoys attending our picnics and our Ear Community picnics always offer such a wonderful opportunity for Microtia and Atresia families to come together, share experiences with each other, and maybe even make a new friend. Medical professionals such as world renown Microtia and Atresia repair surgeons, anaplastologists, ENTs, audiologists, and therapists along with the world’s leading hearing device companies all come together to mingle with us at our picnics, helping educate us on all of our options including hearing loss.

A special thank you to our amazing Ear Community Sponsors!

A special thank you to the Blue Chip Foundation, The William, Jeff and Jennifer Gross Family Foundation, the Omnium Foundation, the Emily Hall Tremaine Foundation and the Every Kid A King Foundation for helping make our special days possible and for helping provide the much needed support to our organization it needs on many levels!
Ear Community’s events are made possible thanks to our organization’s proud sponsors, donor organizations and our community contributors! Without the continued support of our sponsors, donor organizations and community contributors, we would not be able to bring our Microtia and Atresia families together at our events as we have done for more than a decade. We also would not be able to work on all of the research and studies that our organization contributes to that help benefit our community in the future without the help of public contributors. Ear Community is thankful and appreciates the continued support from all of our supporters! Your support means the world to our families, our community and to our organization!
We look forward to seeing everyone at our Ear Community picnics this year!
