Help Us Keep
The Promise

Over the course of their lives, many people with learning differences – from ADHD to dyslexia to autism spectrum disorder – devise workarounds to navigate a system that seems to assume that we all learn the same way. 

Yet, at Beacon College, we embrace young people with learning differences and follow through on our PROMISE to set them on a course to pursue worthy work and an abundant life.

A Message From the President

Building Our Future, together

“A gift to the campaign is a selfless act. Many of our students have only known second. We want them in their undergraduate years to have first and, in doing so, we want them to have the best possible academic program and best facilities. We want them to have a true community. And we want them to be prepared to go out, be independent, and participate in worthy work. Help us continue the pioneering work that is elevating and changing lives. Help us keep the promise.”

– Dr. George J. Hagerty | Beacon College President
