Ear Community 2018 Sponsors
Thank you to all of the families, medical professionals, and to our sponsors who were a part of our Ear Community picnics this year (2018)! Ear Community board members hope that you enjoyed our events and that you were able to learn about the different surgical techniques (Rib Graft and Medpor and canalpasty/atresiaplasty), prosthetic ears, all of the brands of bone conduction hearing devices that are on the market and that you were able to share your experiences with other families, make some new friends, and know that you are not alone. It is always important to remember that each decision made by each individual and family is a personal decision and each and every one of us should always support one another on our journeys for ears and hearing. No one ever has to change their little ears if they are happy with their sweet little ears as children and adults who have Microtia and Atresia are beautiful and perfect in every way. As a nonprofit organization, Ear Community helps educate about “all” options, including the “do nothing” option and helps promote advocacy in an unbiased manner.
This summer, Ear Community proudly hosted (7) Microtia and Atresia family picnics taking place in Sacramento, CA/El Paso, Texas/Nashville, Tennessee/Cincinnati, Ohio/Hamilton, Ontario Canada/Charleston, South Carolina and Johannesburg, South Africa, bringing over 1,000 people together.
Thank you to our amazing Ear Community Sponsors for helping make our picnics possible again this year and for supporting the Microtia and Atresia community through the Ear Community Organization!
