Literacy*AmeriCorps Make a Donation

Greater Pittsburgh Literacy Council

Is there a need for GED classes, adult basic education, and family literacy programs in the Pittsburgh area? YES! Every day five to ten new students call our offices to ask about enrolling in our programs. They urgently want to improve their lives through the power of education. Please help us to meet this heavy demand for services. Your involvement will open up a life.
