OVERVIEW OF LITERACY IN DISTRICT 5020

Welcome to the District 5020 Literacy Web Page.  Right now you are doing something that 800 million can't do, reading.
 
 
The winners of the 2017 Rotary Clubs of Comox Valley Literacy Contest are profiled on local Shaw TV
 
Our clubs in District 5020 support literacy initiatives in many ways. Whether donating books, building schools, or acting as tutors, District 5020 Rotarians are extremely active in efforts to bolster literacy.  To assist club members in the goal of giving the gift of literacy we have collected literacy projects from our district over two years. Please use these as a guide and inspiration for your own literacy projects.  Your club can also consider applying for the District 5020 Literacy Achievement award. Download the application form to find out more.
