Your donations change lives and build community
Each year, Project Literacy Central Okanagan Society receives donations from generous organizations and individuals. Many of these supporters also volunteer their time to tutor, serve on committees, or assist our programs in other valuable ways. We are very grateful for the support we have received from these caring individuals and groups. These donations are used to purchase program supplies, support the training and recruitment of volunteers, and to assist us with the planning of individualized programs for the growing number of clients requiring our services.
