The Mercedes Benz Tennis Tournament event was a charity donation that will benefit the Dyslexia Center of Utah's students who are in need of financial scholarship. These students are able to receive highly specialized tutoring from trained, caring tutors who love what they do. To learn more about the Dyslexia Center of Utah, visit their website: http://dyslexiacenterofutah.org
The Dyslexia Center of Utah is a non-profit tutoring center for students who are challenged with the most prominent language-processing disorder: Dyslexia. 10-15% of the US population have dyslexia, but only five out of every hundred dyslexics receive assistance. Without the proper diagnosis and help, many dyslexics are only functionally literate and part of the 44 million adults with only the lowest level of literacy, limiting their ability to find jobs and function independently within their communities.
The gift package each contestant received was filled with: Wicked Audio Air Buds, gift card to Bowl of Heaven, a hat, Blendtec bottle, Nike Zoom Vapor Shoes, and a Mercedes Back Pack.
A few of our other sponsors are: Coca-Cola, Wilson, Wetsel, Meiers Meats & Fine Foods, Western Interior Services, and All-Star Roofing.
There was also a Silent Auction where 100% of the money will be given tot the Dyslexia Center of Utah to kids scholarships who do not qualify for Make a Wish.
I even got a chance to learn how to serve from CourtThink, who offered a free video serve analysis - thanks Dave!
