About Deafinitely Not Different 5k and Fun Run
This is year 11!!!
Deafinitely Not Different 5k and Fun Run is a run/walk that benefits students who attend Plano Regional Day School Program for the Deaf.
Your participation could...
- help feed a family so that they can attend an Information Fair to learn more about deafness and resources,
- fund a field trip for our preschoolers to pick up new vocabulary from real life experiences,
- provide entry into competitions with kids across the country for our teens,
- buy books for our middle schoolers to use for Battle of the Books,
- and provide extra learning materials for our students and families to use.
These activities are spread throughout the year. Regardless of when they take place, YOU get to help us create memories that last a lifetime!
Plano Regional Day School Program for the Deaf provides services for over 400 families of Deaf and Hard of Hearing students in Collin County, Richardson, and Coppell. Help us provide language rich opportunities to our babies all the way up to graduating Seniors!
