A community with illiteracy affects all within the community.

How can you help?

1. Spotlight on Literacy Gala!
Join Trident Literacy Association on Friday, June 9, 2006 from
7 - 11 PM at Family Circle Tennis Stadium on Daniel Island for a night under the stars to shine the Spotlight on Literacy. The Gala includes a buffet with beer and wine, dancing to live music, raffles, and the opportunity to help improve literacy in our community.

Visit the Trident Literacy Association website to purchase your tickets on-line. Tickets are $50 per person and benefit Trident Literacy Association.

2. Become a TLA volunteer!
With the help of more than 200 volunteers and dozens of community collaborators, Trident Literacy Association (TLA) serves more than 2000 students annually. Call them today at (843) 747-2223 to volunteer your time and talents.

3. Make a donation!
Your financial contribution can make a difference in our community. Literacy means an improved workforce, better schools, and stronger economy in the tri-county. Since 1972, Trident Literacy Association has offered adult classes that get results.

Your generosity makes you a partner in each student's success. Did you know that the Trident Literacy Association offers classes for only a one-time annual fee of $25 per student? And there is no charge for senior citizens aged 65 and up. Trident Literacy appreciates your donations so that they may continue to serve the growing needs of the Tri-county area.
