An unmet need and a substantial waiting list
Literacy Together’s biggest current need is additional volunteer tutors for the Youth Literacy program. This program serves low-income children who read, write, and/or spell below grade level. The current waiting list has more than 50 children seeking tutoring. Tutoring is one-on-one and every new tutor we train will be matched with a student from our waiting list who desperately needs literacy tutoring to catch up with their classmates.
New training model makes it easier to become a Youth Literacy tutor
We have made the training commitment easier, working with current and potential volunteers to restructure the timing, content, and delivery of the volunteer training.

Create the impact of a lifetime
“The Youth Literacy program (formerly The Augustine Project) and Mary Fraser (my son’s tutor) have been an answer to our prayers… This program has helped Graham’s reading immensely, and his self esteem has also improved. Our family is truly blessed by this program and by the help that Mary has provided.”
Barbara, student’s mother
