It’s official. We’ve signed the lease and will be opening the LitNet Learning Center at 137 North Street in Pittsfield on September 1! Whereas it will take some time to get set up and settled, we look forward to soon inviting our community to come visit us in our new space.
I’m so excited to welcome Leesly Collins as LitNet’s newly hired Learner Liaison. Leesly, a LitNet learner who has been working on her English with LitNet since 2022, will now be the first point of contact for LitNet’s 235 enrolled learners. Miguel, who has been the point of contact for learners AND tutors for several years, will focus on working with LitNet’s 200 volunteer tutors. Read more about Leesly below.
Invitations for Let’s Celebrate: LitNet’s Annual Fundraising Celebration, taking place on October 3rd, are now in the mail!
We wrap this newsletter with a review of and links to our August 9 storytelling event at The Mount, which was the perfect evening full of heartwarming and funny stories from our brave and talented learners.
I’m so happy to have you all along for the LitNet ride.
