Walking for a Cause...

 
San Antonio, Texas
 
 
Dear Friends,
I have been a supporter of LDA since I first began teaching children who struggle with learning disabilities, 28 years ago. 
 
I'm going to walk in San Antonio at the 50th International LDA Conference because we must never give up! The students that I teach are creative, funny, and smart, but struggle with reading. They deserve our support...please help LDA to continue the mission.

Please make a donation to help me reach my goal! Any amount will be appreciated!

Thank you for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!!

Sincerely,
Ann Whitten for LDA-SC
