My wife and I want to thank the Home School Foundation for the extraordinary award that you granted to our daughter, Casey (name changed to protect privacy). The Special Needs Children’s Fund has made it totally possible for Casey to remain up to date in her educational endeavors. Casey’s disabilities and our financial constraints caused us great concern about how to cope with her future homeschool needs. Your generous and timely award made our concerns turn into joy for our daughter’s future.
As a family, when we received your letter announcing the award, we cried…everyone of us! What an answer to prayer! Casey is a very visual, hands-on learner. Her disabilities have forced this style of learning upon her. The new computer system has leveled the educational playing field for her in every way. She can see, touch, hear, and almost feel her coursework come alive through the miracle you enabled her to receive.
In our initial letter to you, we spoke of Casey’s disabilities. She has over 200 absence seizures daily along with Asperger’s. Yet, this amazing young woman has never considered these circumstances to be anything more than a challenge to overcome. As her father, I want her to have every opportunity possible to succeed. With much prayer and guidance from the Lord, we found you folks, and you opened your hearts to us as you have done for so many others.
