We are all part of this community!

At Vision Literacy we are working to provide a response to the effects that this pandemic has made us face by changing our way of life. Now more than ever Digital Literacy has brought awareness to how Literacy in all of its forms affects our communities. Teachers, Parents and Students have been forced to leave the classrooms and face the challenges of Digital Learning that many have resisted. Many in our communities are left behind because of the lack of Tools, People and Services. We need to join hands and face remotely together this challenge. We need Laptops, Volunteers, Tablets and your financial support. Let your friends know and invite them to give, make them feel that we are all united to help our communities safely overcome these times.

GIVE, HELP, EDUCATE!

Message from Steve Wozniak

Message from a generous donor

Steve Wozniak,
co-founder of Apple; Honorary Board Member Chair of Vision Literacy
"It is disturbing to me to realize the number of people in our community who struggle daily to read. Reading skills are essential for improving the quality of one's life. As a child I enjoyed reading Tom Swift adventure books.
I can't imagine my life had I not been able to read."

"It's my privilege to assist Vision Literacy achieve its important mission to help adults in need of English instruction.
Clearly, in this country, without an adequate knowledge of English viable survival options may be severely limited. Therefore, thanks to you, and the work of Vision Literacy, for giving these adults a greater opportunity to succeed in life."

English As a Second Language

1 in 5 adults in the Silicon Valley area are functionally illiterate. This means they struggle getting through the day because they can't read well enough to order from a menu, fill out a job application or help their kids with homework.
