Thank you for Supporting Local Adult Literacy in 2023!
Our raffles were a hit — thank you to our in-kind donors who made five wonderful gift baskets possible.
The money we raised means we can help low-income adults pursue their goals in literacy, math, diploma studies, ESL learning, and more. Our students receive free assessments, tutoring, and materials to help them achieve their educational goals.
A tremendous team effort and lots of community support made this event a success! More than 40 volunteers prepared for and put on the book fair; 70+ households, neighborhoods, and other groups donated books; and 16 sponsors or in-kind donors supported us. Thank you!
Thank you to County Executive Steuart Pittman and Councilwoman Lisa Rodvien for joining us at the book fair.
