Back in October, we at EPSS had the opportunity to donate some foam ear plugs to the University of Florida's chapter of the NSSLHA (National Student Speech Language Hearing Association). Our contact with this organization, Jillian, just sent us this fabulous letter and photos of her and her group handing out free ear plugs at games, concerts, and around campus. This is great!

Hi Sarah!
How are you? NSSLHA has had a fun past few weeks handing out ear plugs
to students! We have handed out probably half of the ear plugs you
donated so far. We went to an open Mic Night on October 11th, and the
performers and audience members were so appreciative of the ear plugs.
Yesterday and today, we had our members hand out free ear plugs on
campus, and we got a lot of great feedback from students as well. Here
are some pictures from the events! I also went to a concert last
night, and I brought along with me my handy dandy ear plugs! We
weren't allowed to hand out ear plugs at this concert because they
didn't allow outside vendors or any outside products in the venue, but
luckily I brought a few extra pairs for the people around me :)
Everyone was so thankful because the venue was SO loud, and we could
still enjoy the music with our ear plugs in.
Thanks again so much for everything! The website looks great! I am so
happy we were able to work together to reach out to student to protect
their hearing. I look forward to speaking with you soon!
Best,
Jillian
Aww, that sounds wonderful!!
Too cool! Thanks for setting such a great example for others, Jillian, and for working so hard to help educate young people about the value of hearing protection! We at EPSS are proud to support all your hard work, and we hope to hear from you again soon!
Until next time, be safe and love your ears!
