Planning Reminder From the Personal Representative
Brothers, Sisters and Friends,
As you are aware, the Scottish Rite Foundation of FL, Inc., is the conduit that funds the 14 language learning disorder clinics in the State of Florida. You have also heard me say many times, that donations and contribution to our Foundation are considerably below targeted amounts to fund the 14 clinics at the levels needed to assist the targeted number of children. That being said, I would ask those of you, who at the coming close of 2011 are looking to make an additional charitable donation, as I am planning to do, please remember the Scottish Rite Foundation of FL, Inc and give as liberally as your abilities may permit. The gift would be greatly appreciated ... by the children that it will help! Thank you for your consideration and support! Ill:. Chester A. King, 33° Personal Representative
