Imagine Not Being Able to Read This Sentence.
For over 1 million adults in New Jersey, that’s the reality. But together, we can change that.
Over the next three days, we’re on a mission to raise $50,000 for Literacy NJ, an organization that transforms lives through the gift of reading, writing, and communication. Every dollar brings us closer to a world where every adult has the tools to succeed—at work, at home, and in their communities.
Just ask student Xiomara.
An ESL/GED student with a dream, Xiomara set her sights on earning her high school diploma: "When I learned I had passed the tests, I was excited, because it was so hard for me. I cried, and in my mind, I realized how far I had come. I knew that new opportunities would now open up since I received my high school diploma."
This is the power of literacy.
Your gift today will open doors for more adults like Xiomara—through free one-to-one tutoring, small group classes, conversation circles, and workplace literacy programs.
Every dollar you give helps someone find their voice, their confidence, and their future.
Let’s make literacy possible—for everyone.
Donate now; change a life forever.
