Literacy Green Bay's mission is to empower the adults of our community through education, including computer skills, reading, GED, English, and writing. By providing parents with the opportunity for volunteer-staffed childcare, we create opportunities for them to attend class or tutoring without having to arrange for a babysitter or daycare. Without this stress our students go on to become successful participating community members.
Our childcare department is looking for responsible volunteers who are reliable and comfortable working with children. These volunteers need to be patient, attentive to their children's needs and willing to volunteer at least once a week for three months (Class times vary, morning and evening options are available).
Thank you for considering Literacy Green Bay as your next volunteer opportunity!
Please contact Liz Brinks, lbrinks@literacygreenbay.org for more information!

Mission Statement
The mission of Literacy Green Bay is to help adults and families acquire the reading, writing, math, English language, computer and workforce skills they need to be fully-functioning community members. We accomplish this through the efforts of volunteers, students, and staff, as well as appropriate resources, facilities and funding. We promote awareness of literacy in the community, and collaborate with other agencies and literacy providers to facilitate the effective delivery of services. Our vision is to build a community literate in the English language. https://youtu.be/xyNyuvyp8OE
Description
Literacy Green Bay offers English Language classes, Family Literacy Classes, and One-on-One Adult Tutoring. We offer ELL Classes in the mornings and evenings four days a week. The Children First Family Literacy program is a GED program in collaboration with NWTC and the Howe Community Resource Center, which provides GED instruction. Students in our Adult Tutoring program work one-on-one with volunteer tutors on goals that are specific to their needs (i.e. improving basic reading skills, speaking better English, studying for GED). We are always in need of Volunteers like you, to meet the needs of our students. For more information about how you can help, please contact us at info@literacygreenbay.org or at 920-435-2474.
