Do you want to change someone's life?
They say if you give someone a fish you feed them for a day, but if you teach someone to fish you feed them for a lifetime. This is an extraordinary opportunity to teach someone a skill for a lifetime--to teach someone to read. You can give someone the skills to get a job, to read to their grandchildren, or to open a world of reading. When you know how to read, you can use the Internet, read a novel, or teach yourself a new skill. This is a whole new level of independence for a person and you have the opportunity to give it to someone.
