Press photo courtesy SLUHN Mike and Jean Grabarits were recently recognized for their generous gift to pediatric services at St. Luke's Children's Hospital in Bethlehem. “Jean and I are pleased to support St. Luke's Children Hospital in its ongoing effort to improve the health and well-being of local children. We are inspired by the wonderful care St. Luke's provides and the recent announcements of the new Children's Hospital and children's emergency room,” says Mike Grabarits, former president and chief academic adviser of Step By Step Learning®, a literacy professional development company that trains teachers to be more effective in closing the academic gaps when teaching reading, writing, spelling and comprehension. The Grabaritses are also committed to the Lehigh Valley through their support and involvement in several nonprofits, including PBS39 and the Minsi Trails Boy Scouts of America. The amount of the gift was not disclosed; a floor of the St. Luke's Pediatric Specialty Center off Route 309 in Upper Saucon will bear the Grabarits' name.
