🎄 Northern Lights District Christmas Wish List Donation 🎄

As part of the annual Christmas Wish List program, the Northern Lights District was pleased to present a $1,000 donation to the Dyslexia Edmonton Learning Center. The cheque was presented by the District Deputy Grand Master of the Northern Lights District, supporting an organization that provides vital learning assistance to individuals and families within the community.

This donation was made possible through the Masonic Foundation of Alberta, continuing its commitment to supporting meaningful charitable initiatives during the Christmas season. The Dyslexia Edmonton Learning Center plays an important role in specialized learning support, and this contribution helps further their valuable work.

The Northern Lights District is proud to support organizations that make a positive and lasting difference in the lives of others.

Today is World Dyslexia Awareness Day — a time to celebrate the strengths, advocate for support, and shine a light on the often invisible challenges people with dyslexia face.

Did you know that dyslexia is a neurological difference that affects word recognition, spelling, and decoding—not intelligence? Many with dyslexia can thrive when given the right tools and support.

One incredible initiative making change is the SRCF Learning Centres. These centres offer free, one-to-one tutoring using the Orton-Gillingham approach to help children with dyslexia learn to read. Tuition, training for tutors, and all services are provided at no cost to families. 

💜 Let’s amplify support for inclusive learning.
💜 Let’s talk openly about dyslexia and fight stigma.
💜 Let’s support programs like SRCF’s so no child is left behind because of how their brain works.

Dale Chapman, Board VP, was recognized for 5 years of volunteer service to the SRCF Learning Centre for Hamilton at a ceremony hosted by the Ontario Ministry of Citizenship and Multiculturalism on September 16. Congratulations Dale!

The Valley of Windsor, through the Scottish Rite Charitable Foundation (SRCF) Deputy Awards Program, was proud to donate $1,000 to The Hospice of Windsor & Essex County Inc.

This support helps ensure compassionate care remains free for the community.
