Help New Adult Readers Become New Leaders!

Readers = Leaders! You can help native English-speaking adults reach goals: Getting a Job, Reading Medical Labels, Voting, or Helping Children with Homework.

A fundraising campaign for Friends of the Corona Public Library
Imagine not being able to read street signs: That generally means no driver's license. Or what about being in an accident and coming out of a coma to find you can no longer read. These are just two examples of real situations facing adult learners in the Corona Public Library's Adult Reading Assistance Program.

Every day, staff & volunteers work with adults trying to improve their lives while facing the huge hurdle of limited reading and writing abilities. Your contribution will help provide new resources for the learners and their tutors, including workshops, tutor training, computer software for literacy and much more.

With your help, we can change someone's life: "Eloise" took the written driving test, only missed passing by one and will be taking it again very soon, while "Dennis" is now reading at a sixth grade level and negotiating with two companies for the best job offer. Don't hesitate: Please give now!
