Giving Tuesday

For sixty-three years, the Literacy Council of Frederick County has been helping adults with pathways to essential literacy skills.  During this time, more than 10,000 students have worked with the Literacy Council and improved their literacy skills, which enabled them to be a thriving part of their communities in Frederick County.  Just this year, 195 volunteers have dedicated more than 16,000 hours helping more than 575 adult learners through tutoring, community classes, parent literacy and workplace English programs.

Donate to the Literacy Council of Frederick County today so that we may continue to help our adult learners create the life they want through empowering them with newly acquired literacy skills.  The impact of gaining English language skills has on an individual, their family and their community can be transformative.

When you support us, you help an adult learner reach their goals and meet their potential.   From getting a GED or a driver’s license to finding a better job or to being able to communicate with their children’s teacher – these goals become achievable.  Learning to speak, read, write and listen opens doors for our students that isn’t possible without the support of our volunteer tutors, teachers and from people like you.

Help us raise $3,500.00 this Giving Tuesday, so that we may continue to provide essential literacy instruction and materials to our adult learners.  Through supporting us this Giving Tuesday, you are helping us demonstrate that Literacy Lifts Lives.
