1 in 6 Adults in Hawaii Struggle with Reading and Writing
Founded in 1971, Hawaii Literacy's five free programs - Adult Literacy, Bookmobile, English Language Learner, Family Literacy Libraries, and Digital Literacy focus on those with the lowest literacy skills and help underserved children prepare for and succeed in school, give adults a second chance to learn to read and write, and train hundreds of literacy volunteers to teach in our communities. We provide books, mentors, literacy promotion, and the skills needed to achieve life goals.
Mahalo for continuing to support Hawaii Literacy.
We would like to thank the numerous volunteers who have contributed countless hours to Hawaii Literacy.
As a non-profit, we depend on and appreciate those who give unselfishly, whether it is reading to our keiki, stuffing envelopes, sorting books, helping out on the Bookmobile, tutoring a learner, attending an event, or helping with one of the many areas that require an extra hand, we are grateful.
We would also like to thank our service members and interns for their help.
