When:

Friday, October 18, 2024

6:00 PM - 8:30 PM

By supporting Viva! Dyslexia Awareness, you can create a meaningful impact on the lives of the children we serve.

Since dyslexia is a neurobiological, language-based disability that persists over time and interferes with a student's learning, it is critical that identification and intervention occur as early as possible. Research shows that dyslexia occurs in 15-20% of the population. Since we have over half a million K-12 students in the San Antonio metropolitan area, approximately 110,000 are likely to be dyslexic. Each student with dyslexia needs high-quality instruction from a trained dyslexia interventionist. Your donation and participation in the Viva! Dyslexia Awareness event will help infuse more of these high-quality dyslexia interventionists into our San Antonio community.


Your donation will empower San Antonio-area dyslexia professionals by providing scholarships for comprehensive, high-quality training programs and ensuring that individuals with dyslexia have access to the opportunities they deserve. Best of all, your donation will directly benefit those students with dyslexia in the San Antonio area, as all scholarships will be to local San Antonio residents.​
