Our annual golf tournament is more than just a great day—it’s a chance to come together and make a real impact. Over the past 15 years, this incredible community has helped raise nearly $700,000 in support of family and adult literacy programs.

As one of our learners shared, “If one person is literate, it doesn’t stay with them—it spreads.” 💛

This year, we’re aiming to raise $30,000—enough to more than cover the cost of one of our core programs for a full year.
