“FinFest is a festive party for a great cause, exclaims CEO Michael Howland. “All proceeds raised from FinFest directly support the speech and hearing needs of our community, ensuring that all children can experience the gift of communication.” Last year, over 350 people attended FinFest, which netted $230,000 to help Northeast Florida children.
Celebrating its 74th birthday this year, the Jacksonville Speech & Hearing Center provides professional and compassionate audiology and speech/language services to thousands of Northeast Florida residents regardless of their ability to pay. Patients can conveniently visit the Downtown clinic or South Duval location, as well as the Communication Station at any one of the many community screenings JSHC provides.
