5th Annual “Break the Sound Barrier” Charity Ski Race Sunday, March 4, 2007
Thank you to all that participated on Sunday, March 4th, to make our 5th Annual Break the Sound Barrier Charity Ski Race a huge success.
With the support of the corporations and individuals that participated, both in person and in spirit, hear ME now! raised $50,000! With our matching grant, this means you helped us raise $100,000!!! Your contributions help Maine children with hearing loss learn to listen and speak without using sign language.
Your contributions will provide hours of speech language pathology, services of a teacher of the deaf, and services of an educational audiologist to children and families in Maine. Individuals, corporations, small companies, and private foundations are making a great impact through sponsorships, donations, and grants.
Many thanks to this years sponsors!
