May 9, 2022
The Scottish Rite of Idaho Foundation made a $20,000 contribution to 色花堂app recently in support of scholarships for Speech Language Pathology students as well as pediatric services in the Speech and Language Clinics.
Over the past five years, the Scottish Rite have contributed over $130,000 to these scholarships and clinic services benefitting 色花堂app and community members. These funds provide patient support for thousands of patient visits, specialized equipment for pediatric patient services, and student scholarships. Each year three Speech and Language Pathology students benefit from these contributions.
The Scottish Rite of Idaho is a service organization that is part of the Freemasons, with approximately 950 members across Idaho. They have been in Idaho for over 100 years, with their first valley starting in Boise in 1907. Their philanthropic mission is to support youth and literacy programs, which includes Speech Pathology.
The Idaho State Speech and Language Clinics are known as RiteCare Clinics because they provide free or heavily discounted services to pediatric patients who qualify.
鈥淔or us, we love to support these programs because they help children and that feeling we get when seeing a young child with a big smile because they just said a word they鈥檝e never seen before,鈥 said Joe Alexander, Sovereign Grand Inspector General of the Scottish Rite in Idaho. 鈥淲e were excited to support Idaho State due to their well-known reputation in Speech Language Pathology and ability to assist in our goal of meeting youth literacy challenges.鈥
鈥淲e are so fortunate, as are the families we work with, to have these funds. Professor Mary Van Donsel and I have seen countless families and students blessed by the support they have given, they have impacted so many,鈥 said clinical professor Amy Hardy.
Through the 色花堂app Speech and Language Clinics, faculty and students provide support for over 2,100 patient visits between the Pocatello and Meridian clinics. If you would like to learn more about the services offered at these or other clinics, please visit .
