EDGE stands for:

Hoping that people on the edge will have the edge over others

• E=Extraordinary (it is great to be different)
• D=Dyslexic (obviously we have difficulties in reading and writing)
• G=Gifted (Everybody is born with a gift and it is our duty to let every single human being flourish their gift)
• E=Eclectic (Meaning selective: the incidence of having dyslexia is approximately 10% in any language, race or nationality. The fact that we exist we have a role to play in the society)
