The money from the Thamesville Sertoma and LaSertoma Clubs, and the Chatham Sertoma Club, will go to the Centre's Speech and Audiology programs.

The funding will allow the Centre to hire a Communication Disorders Assistant, purchase more age-appropriate therapy supplies, and help fund the Babies and Books Belong Together Campaign.

Over the past four years, the Sertoma Foundation has given over $115,000 to the Centre.
