Second Collection

A special collection will be taken this weekend, (January 15&16), for two nationally recognized education programs for children with special needs. Both of these institutions are located in the Diocese of Pittsburgh.

The DePaul School for Hearing and Speech provides Listening and Spoken Language education to children who are deaf or hard of hearing. Without the use of sign language, DePaul students learn to listen and speak and successfully transition to their neighborhood schools with their typically hearing peers.

St. Anthony School Programs provided Catholic special education to children with development delays and autism in five elementary/intermediate classrooms, two secondary classrooms and two college-age programs located on the campuses of Duquesne University and the University of Pittsburgh. St. Anthony has also partnered with Carlow University to add an academic component to the curriculum for qualified post-secondary students.

Your donation will help DePaul School for Hearing and Speech and St. Anthony School Programs to further their goals of providing quality educational programs and services to their students. Your support is critical. Your generosity will help these organizations forever improve the lives of their students and families. Thank you in advance for your generosity and support.
