That is why literacy programs are integrated into the multi-faceted day-to-day life of our communities and why we see an ongoing commitment of these communities to support literacy as a key to personal development and to the socio-economic progress of our nation.

These activities include open houses, community reading festivals, literacy displays, fundraisers and literacy awareness initiatives that target the whole neighbourhood.
