📚✏️ Wellness Wednesday: Back-to-School Edition ✏️📚

As kids head back to the classroom, don’t forget—healthy hearing is essential for learning! Children with untreated hearing loss often struggle with focus, reading, and keeping up with their peers.

Here are a few simple wellness tips for students this year:
👂 Schedule a hearing screening if you notice frequent “What?” or “Huh?” responses
🔉 Keep headphones at a safe volume
🤝 Encourage kids to speak up if they’re having trouble hearing in class

Healthy hearing means healthy learning! Let’s give every student the chance to succeed this school year. 🍎

Meet HaylieCalicott, VP/Business Development Officer at First Security Bank and a dedicated member of Hough Ear Institute’s Young Professionals Board! 🎉

Haylie shares, “I was inspired to join the Hough Ear Institute (HEI) Young Professionals Board because I heard the call and answered! Hearing is an essential part of life and one of your five senses… At HEI they have researchers dedicating their time to improving the quality of life for those suffering from these problems. When in doubt just lend an ear!”

She’s most looking forward to the HEI Annual Gala—both to celebrate and to hear powerful stories of impact from those whose lives have been changed. 💙

We’re grateful to have Haylie’s passion and leadership on the YP Board as we work to ensure that all who have ears will hear.

🎉 We did it — and so much more! 🎉

Our HoughAid program has already served 100 Oklahomans this year, reaching our 2025 goal months ahead of schedule. Hearing aids are life-changing tools, connecting people with their loved ones, their jobs, and their communities.

But the need is greater than ever. August alone brought us a record number of applicants — more than double any other month! That means more neighbors in Oklahoma are still waiting for help.

Thanks to the Anderson Charitable Foundation Matching Gift Challenge, every dollar you give today is doubled — up to $20,000!

Give hope. Give hearing. 💙

On World Humanitarian Day, we celebrate the incredible legacy of our founder, Dr. JVD Hough, whose passion for bringing hearing health to underserved communities has shaped Hough Ear Institute’s mission.

In just the last few years, our teams have provided care to more than 2,500 individuals in countries like Vietnam, Nepal, and Nigeria—offering not only treatment, but also training for local providers so hearing health can continue to thrive long after we leave.

Dr. Hough believed hearing is a gift that should be shared worldwide—and we’re honored to carry that vision forward. 💙
