By virtue of the generous support of our Speech Charity’s Doners the Oregon Scottish Rite Speech & Language Charity was able to provide a grant of $120,000 to the University of Oregon College of Education HEDCO Speech-Language-Hearing Clinic and in thanks we received the following letters of gratitude from UO College representatives.
On behalf of the UO College of Education HEDCO Speech-Language-Hearing Clinic, we are incredibly grateful to the OR Scottish Rite Speech & Language Charity for the recent $120,000 award which is currently supporting summer camps for pediatric speech clients, and which will fully subsidize all pediatric speech sessions in the academic year ahead. The opportunity to ensure that all pediatric clients face no financial barriers to speech services is a true milestone in our Clinic and community, where demand for services continues to increase and families face ongoing financial constraints. We are proud to partner with OSR to help young Oregon children develop the communication skills they need to be successful at home, in school, and in life.
We recently acknowledged OSR’s generous support on the College of Education’s social media changes. I’ve provided links to those posts below.
Again, thank you for this investment in youth pediatric services in Lane County. We look forward to reporting back on the impact of this investment in the year ahead.
With gratitude,
Esther, Director of Development, UO College of Education
