The Scoop

from the Scott Haug Foundation

Greetings from the Scott Haug Foundation! It’s my pleasure to give an update on what the foundation is working on this year to both support students and to promote fun at the TAA conference in Houston.

This year is the Foundation’s 40th Birthday!!!!! Our goal is to raise $40,000 this year to support our scholarship program. Get ready for some fun at the opening session. Lets see if we can hit this goal!

The Foundation will once again be organizing a golf tournament but not your average golf tournament. This year we are planning on having our event at Top Golf and it will be held Thursday evening. This will surely be a great event with lots of fun. The money we raise goes directly towards student scholarships. The more money we can raise the more we can put towards our deserving students.

Work has begun collecting nominations for the student scholar awards. Each year we recognize outstanding third-year students from each of our five Texas universities.

Every year the Foundation recognizes the Outstanding Audiologist. In Texas we have many amazing audiologists that deserve to be recognized for their contributions to the profession and to the communities we serve. To learn more about the process of nominating an audiologist go to: https://scotthaug.org/outstanding-texas-audiologist/

We can’t wait to see you in Houston!!!
