The August issue of Tinnitus Today features an overview of promising tinnitus research in the United States and abroad. It also presents a clinical trial using acamprosate to treat tinnitus and a study on tinnitus and brain cells. Read about an ATA member’s participation in a clinic trial and an otolaryngologist’s observations of auditory damage caused by kissing on the ear. The family series highlights Dr. Gary and Barbara Reul. We bring you stats on U.S. vets’ escalating incidence of tinnitus and recaps of ATA’s 2008 Walk For A Cure and the Los Angeles tinnitus seminar And of course – Letters to the Editor, the Q&A and Members Corner.
It’s time to designate eligible nonprofit organizations, including ATA, for the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC), which runs from Sept. 1 through Dec. 15, 2009. Pledges made by federal employees (military and civilian) during this time support organizations that provide health and human service benefits throughout the world. Giving through CFC is a nearly effortless way to regularly make tax-deductible gifts directly through payroll.
Please support the American Tinnitus Association through your CFC payroll deduction plan. To designate ATA as a recipient, use our five digit CFC number: #11030.
Thank you to everyone who contributes through their federal workplace giving programs!
