Literacy Chicago thanks you for your generosity and caring, especially for choosing our organization.

We recognize that monetary donations are not the only way to give on any given day of the year - so we thank you for doing what you can.

Did you know that approximately one-third of adult Chicagoans read at third grade level or lower? Literacy Chicago's mission is to change that.

There are a number of ways to raise awareness and to help the cause of empowering adult Chicagoans:

You can share this video with our Director of Program Development, Joanne Telser-Frere, who talks about volunteers' important role in our work with adults.
You can volunteer to tutor American adults learning to read, immigrants learning to read and speak English, and our GED, Citizenship, and workforce development students.
You can share a valuable skillset with our adult learners. Contact us directly to learn more.
And you can always follow us on social media to keep the pulse on our successes and our various annual events, engaging supporters, learners, and our dedicated volunteers.

Thank you for supporting Literacy Chicago in all the ways that you do!

Wishing you a successful bloom,

Rich Dominguez, Executive Director
