Why LitNet's mission matters or why it resonates with me:
The ability to speak, read, and write is the great equalizer, as it opens up doors that might otherwise not be available. Additionally, it provides the ability to more readily access basic human services. I was fortunate to be born into a good zip code, with access to education, books, reading, and writing. Literacy is a human right and LitNet gives me the opportunity to help others on their literacy journey.
