Each year Families & Literacy provides educational classes and services to over 500 adult students from Kerr and surrounding counties. Even though, most students pay a small fee for the classes it is imperative that these fees remain low. This grant will help F&L maintain a high quality of classes and serve the most students possible.
Families & Literacy is indeed fortunate to have support from the Bank of America Charitable Foundation, Inc. in order to further its mission, "To enable Hill Country adults, through education, to be better prepared to participate in the life of the community".

THE MISSION of Families & Literacy, Inc., is to enable
Hill Country adults, through education, to be better
prepared to participate in the life of the community.
Your support can change a life:
Education has never been more needed and valuable than it is today for our adult students. With the job market extremely tight, how far can one get if one does not have a high school education? If one does not speak, read, or write English well enough to function in today's ever more complicated society?
Families & Literacy, Inc. is a safety net whereby our adult students can equip themselves with the necessary basic skills to compete in today's environment. Some comments from our students at our spring 2011 GED graduation ceremony:
"It was the first stepping stone to opening so many doors for me." Kimberly Martinez, currently enrolled at Alamo Colleges.
"I promised my mother I would finish school. I am very proud of what I have achieved." Isaac Gamez, husband and father of three young children.
"God has let me see my life path clearly through Families & Literacy programs and no one can see my past because of my Future."
