Cheers to Literacy!

OCTOBER 23, 2012
6pm - 9pm

Red Brick Brewery
Atlanta, GA

We are excited to announce our spectacular Fall event, 

"Cheers to Literacy"! 

Literacy Action has teamed up with Red Brick Brewery, right here in Atlanta, to provide a night of great brews, great music, for a great cause.  

Did you know Metro Atlanta has nearly 900,000 low-literate adults?  Imagine being unable to read a bus sign, understanding a prescription, or incapable of reading to your children; that is the crisis so many adults face on a daily basis.  Literacy Action is dedicated to arming low-literate adults with the tools they need to become self-sufficient individuals, parents, employees, and citizen. 

Join us as we raise a glass to ending adult low-literacy in Metro Atlanta.

The purchase of a ticket to this event gets you:

• Red Brick Brewery craft beer;

• Food fresh from Poor Huey's hot dog cart (carnivores & veggies all welcome);

• Ear-appeasing music from Under the Porch;

• One-of-a-kind Literacy Action pint glass.

$25 - Advance

$30 - Door

*cash, check, debit/credit card accepted*

Literacy Action Celebrates Literacy Month!

We are back on the blog and ready to go!  

We hope you enjoyed the last blog series of "How Maddy Reads It", as you followed the journey of our intern, Maddy.  It was so great to see a young member of the community feel passionate about low-literacy and the impact it has on all of us.

September is literacy month, dear friends.  Over the next two weeks, we will be blogging about our adventures in advocating for our students, our cause, and our community.  Also, you will follow the travels  of our "Save a Cup. Give a Hand Up." mug.  We invite you to join our journey.  

With over 800,000 low-literate adults in Metro-Atlanta, our efforts cannot be contained to our teachers and staff.  It must include YOU.  Join us in stopping the cycle of intergenerational low-literacy.  Give families a chance to thrive.  Give kids the tools they need to succeed - Literate parents, grandparents, guardians, siblings, and friends. 

You have the power to push this movement forward!

Purchase your mug and show us your support!  $25 during Literacy Month!
