Hi Friends,
It is 4 years since we opened the doors to our Delia's Learning Center! Five years ago we founded The Delia Foundation. We dreamt of changing the course of a life for a special needs child., orphaned and without an advocate. In reality, we were hopeful but blazing a new path. True to the movie Field of Dreams, we believed that "If we build it, they would come." AND,, they did. From the moment we opened our doors four years ago, they came..children whose own hopes and dreams had been dashed. children who just need support and a smile, children who need a fighting chance to unlock their potential.
We could not have done it without you! We are continuing to grow with 40 kids now and would love to have your continued support. If you can, please consider donating through this link Donate here!
We have grown to run two learning and therapeutic sessions every weekeday (morning and afternoon) with kids ranging in age from 3-15. Last year, we launched a new teen/pre-teen program to help foster independence and get our kids thinking about vocational opportunities!
Attached are some recent photos of the kids and our work with them. If you are not already following us on Facebook or Instagram, it would be great if you did and then you get a more frequent peak into life at Delia's Learning Center.
