About the Project

The goal of this project is to continue the literacy support program at targeting persons who are functionally illiterate.

The lack of literacy impedes persons from moving from low paid jobs to better paid jobs because they lack the basic skills to perform anything but menial labor.

But more importantly, literacy gives confidence, a sense of achievement and restores pride as they are better able to navigate the modern world.

Although there are few official statistics available on this subject, several local organizations reported encountering literacy issues with course participants in the recent past.

This project aims to build on previous experience and take the participating students a step closer to full literacy
