Is Helping Us with
Bilingual Literacy Initiative
Autism Scholarships
Through a partnership with the Philadelphia Foundation, and an active Read By 4th Member, this fund supports immigrant and refugee families who do not have access to books in their languages. We purchase books in English & French as well as Spanish & English to enable families to read to their children. So far, we have distributed over 150 bilingual books to immigrant families. Our goal for 2024 is to distribute up to 500 books. Help us meet our goal by donating to us today!
This Fund provides families of children with autism a scholarship to purchase communication devices, sensory educational toys, and attend camps to enable autistic children to communicate with pictures, and improve their social skills. Scan to donate to this important cause.
