Information from the Literacy Center of West Michigan: 

Literacy Center of West Michigan Executive Director Susan Ledy announced that the Literacy Center is in dire need of volunteers to tutor learners participating in the Center’s literacy programs.  The Literacy Center matches each learner with a tutor who guides them through the literacy program and ensures successful achievement of the learner’s goals.  There is currently a waiting list of over 50 learners waiting to be matched with a tutor.

The Literacy Center is located at 1120 Monroe NW, Suite 240 in Grand Rapids.

“Our tutors are a vital part of the Literacy Center. They give the students additional attention and direction while matriculating through our literacy programs,” commented Ledy.

“As National Volunteer Week approaches, we hope that our Grand Rapids community will consider becoming a tutor.
