Anderson, Sr. and Marie Jo Anderson Charitable Foun- dation from Austin, Texas has presented the LLH with a challenge grant of $15,000 to Sponsor a Child. Therefore, every dollar donated to sponsor a LLH child will be matched up to $15,000. Currently, we have matched $12,000. If you are interested in help- ing us raise the final $3,000, please write in the memo line of your check “Anderson Charitable Foundation Matching Grant.” All funds received to sponsor a child will be used to provide therapeutic services and education for a LLH child. Additionally, therapeutic equipment for the child may be purchased with a portion of the funds. It costs approximately $30,000 per child for one year of services at the LLH. This includes any necessary therapies: speech, occu- pational, physical, low vision, and a state-of-the art education that prepares the child for kindergarten. Your generosity can help make a difference! 14 | THE BEACON
