Exempt Status: 501(c)(3) (IRS Form 990 Filed)
The FIRE Foundation, an independent 501(c)3 organization, makes it possible for partner Catholic schools to hire special educators and paraprofessionals and to acquire learning materials and technology that create successful learning experiences for all children. FIRE also provides professional development opportunities on a range of inclusive education topics for educators.
Without grants from FIRE, most schools would not be able to welcome students with Down syndrome, significant learning disabilities, many who are on the Autism spectrum and students who need significant learning supports. In inclusive learning environments, children grow up knowing and appreciating each other’s unique gifts.
