Thank You for a Wonderful Event!
Our 2023 spring fundraiser was a refreshing and fun evening, in which our community was invited to celebrate together, in person, for the first time since 2019. With more than 200 people in attendance, our evening featured games, fun and a silent auction.
Thanks to your support, we raised more than $65,000 to support TLC's future!
Warren Schwab Memorial Award
The Warren Schwab Memorial Award is given annually to an individual who has helped empower and shape Deaf education.
We proudly presented the 2023 award to Maureen O'Donnell, one of The Learning Center's contributors and founders. Friends of TLC Jill Grenon and Dermot Keohane accepted the award on Maureen's behalf.
Why Your Support Matters
We recently completed our new strategic plan and, over the next three years, we are committed to focusing on a number of organizational objectives. Using our strengths and accomplishments over the past 50+ years, we will continue to build TLC as a Center of Excellence for Deaf education and services to ensure that all deaf and hard of hearing children and adults thrive by having the knowledge, opportunity and power to design the future of their choice.
- Sustainability: Despite national staffing shortages and post-pandemic setbacks, TLC is committed to remaining a financially viable organization which sets intentional goals for program growth;
- Readiness: We are prioritizing efficient and engaging systems of processes which support data-driven decision making;
- Leadership: Committed to people over process, we continue to invest in our staff and leadership growth opportunities;
- Inclusivity: TLC remains steadfast in maintaining a culture of equity, inclusion and belonging, and an environment where Deaf culture is understood and respected, and where American Sign Language is the predominant medium used.
We hope you will join this fun evening. With every roll of the dice or flip of the cards, you are joining our mission to provide opportunity, knowledge and power. With your support, our work is possible.
