Support the Children’s Literacy Program

Donations to our summer literacy program allow us to hire and train university and/or college students to tutor children in kindergarten through grade three during July and August. These children have been recommended by their teachers for extra help with their reading and writing during the summer holiday.

You can donate via our CanadaHelps page, at the library, or by making a contribution to the Children’s Literacy Fund at the Perth and District Community Foundation.
