The Kaplan Family Fund for Learning Disabilities in Southern West Virginia
Dr. Seth and Mrs. LaRinda Kaplan have established the “Kaplan Family Fund for Learning Disabilities in Southern West Virginia” to support educators pursuing training in reading programs with a focus on dyslexia methodologies. The fund will pay for training provided by Lindamood-Bell and Marshall University’s H.E.L.P Center reading programs that focus on children with dyslexia. Initially, the grant will support educators with a minimum of two year’s teaching experience in McDowell, Wyoming, Mingo and Raleigh counties of West Virginia, but the Kaplans hope the fund will one day grow to the point it can serve other areas of the Appalachian Mountains as well.
