Welcome
to the website of Literacy Volunteers of Greater Sanford!
Our mission is supporting the needs of adults, especially
those reading below the ninth-grade level, with free,
confidential one-on-one tutoring by trained adult volunteers.
Our approach is student-centered so that literacy goals
match life goals related to the family, employment and
citizenship.
Whether your goal is to gain better skills for a job,
help a child with homework, read the label on a prescription
bottle, or become a volunteer, we hope you will contact
us.
