SUMMARY:2019 Unity Campaign
DESCRIPTION:The Literacy Council is again honored to be one of 32 nonprofit organizations participating in the Unity Campaign for Frederick County\, hosted by United Way of Frederick County. The Unity Campaign supports the over one in three households in Frederick County that struggle to afford basic human necessities! Together\, we can make a difference! \nThe Unity Campaign is a collaborative project between nonprofit partners\, sponsors\, and the greater Frederick community to support our most vulnerable neighbors by giving to a nonprofit organization of their choice. \nLiteracy is the basis for success in all other areas of life. It enables people to gain better employment to provide food\, clothing\, shelter and health care for themselves and their families. And the children of literate parents are much more likely to succeed in school. \nThe 2018 Frederick Community Assessment Report conducted by the Frederick County Community Foundation identified several common stressors that negatively impacted the well-being of families.  These include financial hardship\, housing and food instability\, health issues and lack of affordable childcare. Illiteracy compounds each of these stressors\, erecting a barrier that severely limits the financial options of a family. While these are multifaceted and complex issues\, adult literacy is the one factor that can have a positive impact across the board. \nThe majority of fundraising will take place during the “12 Days of Giving” which begins on September 11th and continues through September 22th.  However\, the campaign is currently running and accepting donations!  Please consider donating by designating the Literacy Council of Frederick County or by supporting the campaign as a whole.  Matching funds will provide more bang for your donated bucks! \nVisit http://www.unityfrederick.com/ to learn more about the campaign. \nTo donate online to the Literacy Council\, please visit our Unity Campaign page. Or download the Mail-in Donation Form to send a check.
