Since 1956, Miriam School has been helping children with learning disabilities throughout the St. Louis region excel and become successful. Through their small, nurturing environment, individualized approach, and staff's expertise, Miriam helps more than 1,000 students who have complex learning disabilities within a 70-mile range of St. Louis. They provide three programs for students, including Miriam School, Miriam Academy, and Miriam Learning Center, an elementary and middle school, a high school, and an educational center for those who wish to remain in their current environment while accessing Miriam's range of services, respectively.

"We are so excited to be partnering with Katie's on this event," said Janine Lawler, Individual Giving and Events Manager at Miriam School. "Miriam School has a long history of helping children with learning disabilities unlock their potential, and we are grateful for being the next local nonprofit organization to benefit from this great event."

All funds donated from the Giveback Tuesday event will go directly toward Miriam's annual tuition assistance campaign.

"With more than 50 percent of our students receiving some level of financial aid, the funds from this event will allow a number of our students to receive the educational environment and services that they need to reach their potential," Lawler said.
