      I hope the title is catchy enough, i am not a wordy person. ATA's walk for a cure is a fundraising event geared toward funding research to cure tinnitus. All the money raised is devoted to research grants.

      I always read people complaining nothing is done to cure tinnitus. By donating to the walk we can actually DO something and vote with our money. Or put our mouths where our money is. Whatever expressions floats your boat. Not only does it fund seed grants but it also shows the politicos there are people caring enough to devote money to it.

      Allow me to bump this. They need 50K $ to fund a research purse. This isn't finished yet. It is not money given, it is money invested. :)

      Maybe loud music. Not sure.
      Just donated $25. Though i don't live in the US, i still think the US has the biggest chance to find a cure.
