Friends of Literacy -- New Young Patrons Opportunity

One of the greatest assets Birmingham has to offer is the strong service-mindedness of the members of the community. Friends of Literacy is a young patron’s group that works to create awareness and support of literacy. The Literacy Council is looking for members to join this vibrant, civic-minded organization.

We have confirmed our speaker and date for our next Friends of Literacy event. It will be Thursday, August 14 and the President of Mental Floss Magazine (a new trivia magazine) will be the speaker. We will be meeting prior to the event to get everything coordinating.

Friends of Literacy is currently trying to add more structure to the group. If you are interested in assuming a leadership role within the group please let Debra Des Vignes of the Literacy Council know (205-326-1925).

In addition, if you know of anyone that may be interested in joining the group please send me their contact information. We will be sending letters in the next couple of weeks to officially invite new members to join.

Thanks for you participation and please let me know if you have any questions.

Debra, The Literacy Council
