Will you help us reach our matching grant goal?

The Robert L. and Kathrina H. Maclellan Foundation recently awarded the Institute a matching grant of $15,000—which means we need to raise $1 for every $1 the foundation gives us! The money will support educational programs for children with special needs at the Siskin Early Learning Centers. Will you help us meet the goal? Donate today!
