Description

Saint Brigid of Kildare School is fortunate to have a unique and valuable program for children
with special learning needs. The SPiCE (Special People in Catholic Education) program is in its
19th year and allows students in our elementary school to be individual learners. Leveraging this
philosophy and collaboratively working together results in a meaningful education for all
children.

SPiCE provides training to aid children with a variety of challenges, including hearing or vision
impairments, language arts and mathematical challenges, and behavioral issues. The primary
fundraiser for the SPiCE program is Corks for a Cause, an annual Wine Tasting and Silent
Auction that will be held March 1, 2025. Last year, individuals and businesses collectively
donated items for our silent auction, which raised over $132,000. With these funds, Saint Brigid
ofKildare was able to provide additional technological items and services to students, continued
dyslexia training for teachers, funding towards several intervention specialists to provide
additional aide in the classrooms, and special education paraprofessionals.

This year we are celebrating our 18th year hosting this event. Will you join us? We hope you
will consider a donation this year. Any denomination or auction item of any value would be
greatly appreciated.
