Burlingame, CA — The Burlingame RiteCare Childhood Language Center has been awarded a $30,000 grant through the 2025 Community Grants Program presented by the Peninsula Health Care District (PHCD). This generous funding will directly support the center’s mission of providing life-changing speech and language therapy services to children in need, ensuring that more families have access to high-quality, no-cost treatment for communication conditions.
The grant was officially presented at last night’s PHCD Award Ceremony, where Ana Pulido, CEO of PHCD, along with several members of the Burlingame RiteCare Childhood Language Center Board, proudly accepted the award on behalf of the center. The funds will be used to expand therapy resources, enhance program offerings, and continue serving children who face speech and language challenges.
“This grant represents a crucial investment in the future of our children,” said Roberto Diaz, a representative of the Burlingame RiteCare Childhood Language Center. “With PHCD’s support, we can continue providing essential speech therapy services, giving children the tools they need to communicate effectively and succeed in life.”
The California Scottish Rite Foundation (CASRF) and the Burlingame RiteCare Childhood Language Center extend their deepest gratitude to Peninsula Health Care District for their unwavering commitment to community health and their generous support of programs that make a meaningful impact in the lives of children and families.
