Champion Chat: Trent Jarrett

[Oct. 25, 2015] Our kids loved hearing Trent Jarrett share his inspiring story of success despite dyslexia and hearing loss. Trent is senior captain of the University of Illinois at Chicago's men's gymnastics team, and was a contestant on the show American Ninja Warrior. Thank you Trent for making a difference in their lives!

Dyslexia Awareness Month October 2015

For Dyslexia Awareness Month, we arranged to have the 16-story Millennium Carillon in downtown Naperville IL to be lit in red lights! Our Buddy Network families met at the Carillon to see the red lights and celebrate our kids' hard work. Each kid received red goody bags with glow sticks and awesome comic books donated by Graham Crackers Comics in Plainfield IL. They promptly ran around waving their glow sticks. 

We are happy to join dyslexia advocates across the country who have arranged for public structures to be lit up in red lights too, such as Knoxville TN, Nashville TN, Oklahoma City OK, Portland OR, Buffalo NY, Minneapolis MN and Montgomery AL, Boston MA, Milwaukee WI, Charlotte NC, Sydney Australia, Brisbane Australia
