MC Dyslexia Center Receives $60,000 Grant | Community Spirit

Mississippi College’s Dyslexia Education and Evaluation Center will receive a $60,000 grant to strengthen its teaching mission to dyslexic youngsters over the next four years.

The funds come from the Florida-based Ware Foundation that provides grants improving the quality of people’s lives, with its focus on children.

“I’m just very delighted this organization saw the worth of our center,” said Mitti Bilbo, director of the program housed in a renovated three bedroom residence on the university’s East Campus. “We’re meeting the needs of children in Mississippi.”
