Unlocking each child’s potential through the foundation of reading
An educational partnership with the School Sisters of Notre Dame
Thank you, photos, speeches and more
ESLC thanks you for honoring our founding director, Sister Audrey Lindenfelser, SSND. After contributing to ESLC's mission for over 16 years, Sister Audrey retired as Executive Director to return to her passion of direct service. [Click Sr. Audrey's picture to learn more!]
Donate and maximize your gift!
Together, we met our goal to raise $20,000 in honor of Sr. Audrey, but we have two more challenge matches from the Katherine B. Andersen Fund of the Saint Paul Foundation and a Bremer Foundation match. You can still designate your gift to the Sister Audrey Children's Reading Fund! ESLC is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that relies on your generosity to “unlock each child’s potential through the foundation of reading.” Make a gift for children to receive one-on-one tutoring with a caring adult.
