The fraternal group Scottish Rite Masons, which has been promoting treatment of reading problems for over a decade, stages fund-raising events throughout an area of the US that deserve mention here on LD Blog: Various lodges (as I think they’re called) sponsor runs (or walks) to raise money for their work in providing services to children who have dyslexia.
JOIN in the RUNS and WALKS TO HELP CHILDREN WITH DYSLEXIA
Several are Planned So Far, With Many More To Come.
This year our event will take place in many cities and towns throughout the 15-state, Northern Masonic Jurisdiction, raising funds to support the tutoring services children need to overcome dyslexia. We’re eager to have you sign up in your local area. Detailed information about the event nearest to you is listed under locations. Please join us in this important cause.
Link to Walk or Run to Help Children with Dyslexia. Also, visit the Masonic Learning Centers for Children. And, yes, part of my interest in this project is that I run; there’s no race in my neighborhood, though…mayhaps I should talk with the local lodge.
