The Literacy Council has been awarded critical local government support for FY26. Grants from the County Executive’s Community Support Grant Program and the City of Annapolis will help make our free programs possible.
We are grateful for this funding, which is essential to our work and mission.
*65 local nonprofits will receive County Executive Community Support Grants.
The Literacy Council was among 65 organizations that will receive funds. $2 million will be distributed among grant recipients. For more information about this program, read the County’s press release.
*The City of Annapolis is backing our mission.
Annapolis also offers a Community Grant Program, and for the second time, the Literacy Council will be a beneficiary. Funds will support our programs for Annapolis residents.
Last year, we worked with 76 Annapolis students. Highlights include that five of them earned high school diplomas, four passed a section of the GED, one passed the ASVAB exam, seven got a better job or promotion, one passed the citizenship test, 23 improved their ability to communicate in English, and 12 improved an employability skill.
