Seacoast Center Wins Giving Tuesday Donation Match
Congratulations
to the Seacoast Learning Center for receiving the most individual donations for the 2021 Giving Tuesday Telethon! As part of a challenge issued to all local Children’s Dyslexia Centers by the Scottish Rite Benevolent Foundation, the Seacoast Learning Center will receive a dollarfor-dollar match toward every donation made on its behalf during our Giving Tuesday telethon for a total of $7,506. This funding will directly benefit the Center’s afterschool tutorial reading program for children with dyslexia, a learning difference that makes it difficult to read, write, and spell.
by Jocelyn K. Wallace, Grant Writer and Coordinator, Children’s Dyslexia Centers, Inc.
Center Director Brenda Peters expressed her gratitude for all of those who tuned in and helped to support the Center: “Thank you Seacoast Learning Center parents, dyslexia practitioners, Board, and Masons for calling during the telethon and showing your support for our beloved Center. We are winners of the 2021 telethon because of you. The difference you make to the Seacoast Learning Center is profound. Keep on doing this noble work of changing lives through literacy.”
