‘Let’s Hear it for Education’ program to benefit VHCSF

Sonology Hearing Aid Clinic, a division of McCool and Bhuta, ENT, is pleased to announce the launch of the “Let’s Hear it for Education” program benefiting the Vestavia Hills City Schools Foundation (VHCSF). 

Through this program, VHCSF will receive a donation of $50 for every hearing aid purchased when the patient says, “Let’s hear it for education in Vestavia Hills.”

“Dr. [Tarika] Bhuta and I are excited to partner with the Vestavia Hills City Schools Foundation for the ‘Let’s Hear it for Education’ campaign,” Dr. Brian McCool said. “We value excellence in education and in providing the very best health care for hearing loss. We hope the Vestavia Hills community will reach out to family and friends and encourage them to visit Sonology. After all, the greater the participation, the greater the reward for the schools.”

VHCSF Board President Janet Ball added: “We are so pleased to be working with Dr. Bhuta and Dr. McCool on this program. Partnerships such as this are critical to our ability to grow the endowment and increase support for our schools.”
