what if widgets gives back to the American Hearing Research Foundation
The American Hearing Research Foundation is pleased to announce that new product development company, what if widgets, will be donating 5 percent of its sales profits to the Foundation.
| What if widgets was founded by Mike Simmons, a product designer living in San Francisco, who decided to strike out on his own and start his own company. Simmons developed earbud JACK, the flagship product of What If Widgets. Jack is a cool holder for your MP3 earbuds that keeps them neat, organized and wrapped up around JACK’s “arms.” JACK officially went on sale on October 18, 2007. | ![]() |
“JACK saved my life!” reported one customer. “Before today, everything seemed in total disarray. But now, with JACK, I feel like order has been restored, and I can move on.” Most others were simply happy to avoid tangled cords. Participating resellers were MacFriends, Amazon, and J&R in NYC.
Simmons decided to give back to the community when he founded what if widgets, and choose the American Hearing Research Foundation as one of the organizations he would donate to.
