Currently, one in four adults struggle with literacy, numeracy or technology. The TLG plays an important role in helping individuals regardless of ability, culture or status to increase their knowledge, skills, and confidence to realize their potential and to flourish.
TLG is recruiting volunteers, and appreciates community funding for programs that are not covered through their existing budgets and government and United Way funding.
We appreciated learning about the major impact this group is having on the success of individuals in Waterloo Region, including new Canadians.
