On October 15, 2024 the Macomb Infant Preschool Program (MIPP), Kensington Community Church, and Glen H. Peters School, serving a combined total of over 1,680 students with special needs in Macomb County, received grants totaling $4,003.71 from Jamie’s Smiles for current projects and equipment.
The money from these grants is for the purchase of therapy items and toys that will promote expressive communication skills, enhanced speech therapy, physical therapy aids, therapeutic positioning seat positioners, sensory toys, and noise canceling headphones to name a few. Some items will be used on site at their locations and others will be utilized as short-term loan equipment for families to use for child development and in-home teaching.
