Without partners like you, we cannot accomplish this mission. Chatham Literacy is entirely dependent on grants, donations, public events and business sponsorships. We hold two fundraisers each year. All proceeds fund Chatham Literacy’s free one-on-one and small-group instruction. We are proud to share that we provide adult literacy through multiple learning platforms: in-person learning, distance learning, digital learning app or a combination of these learning platforms.
