The Delaware
County Literacy Council works with adults who wish to read, write, speak
and understand English, helping them to increase their communication
skills and to participate more fully in society. The Council uses
volunteers to ensure that programs are free and accessible to everyone.

United Way of Southeast Delaware County
DCLC was awarded a grant in the amount of $10,685 from the United
Way of Southeast Delaware County for the coming year. Funding
decisions for the United Way are made by the Community Impact
Committee, an all-volunteer committee which visited DCLC this spring
to learn more about us and the work we are doing. The Committee
evaluates four areas: organizational capacity, program assessment,
financial analysis, and the submitted proposal. The Community
Impact Committee rated DCLC 94 out of a possible 100 points and
commented, “The agency is impressive, has grown, and exhibits a new
energy!” |
