Congratulations & Gratitude

Many thanks to DLC students and tutors for making this year truly special. The Teen Career Academy has had a remarkable year with a record-breaking number of graduates. The Adult Literacy Program has served a record number of dedicated students. And the ESOL Program has enabled its first group of students to transition into pre-GED studies in English. These accomplishments are but a few of many successes achieved this year - none of which would be possible without the hard work of about 500 students and 100 tutors. What a difference a year can make!

Adult Literacy and ESOL Spring Celebration 2009

A Huge Success!

We did it! The DLC was one of the Top 10 Nonprofit Fundraisers in the 2009 Great Human Race!

Please check back for photos and the total amount raised - we'll post them this week. (And for those of you who have asked if it's too late to collect more funds - no, it's not too late. Our secure online donation page (at active.com) will be active for about 3 more weeks. Checks should be made out to the Volunteer Center of Durham, and they should include Durham Literacy Center on the memo line.)

Thanks to everyone who made this event a huge success for the DLC!
