Free Reading Tents and Day Camps

All Welcome! We have a lot of fun and engaging events happening this summer. In communities across Canada, we're offering free Reading Tents and day camps all season long. These events are great opportunities for kids and families to get outside and have fun with books and games. 

Learning Disability Program for Adults

Our Learning Disability Program is designed to support adults with learning disabilities, helping them develop essential literacy, numeracy, and life skills—at no cost. We aim to empower individuals to reach their full potential and make meaningful contributions to their communities. Through accessible, personalized support, we focus on life goals and provide tailored assistance to meet the unique needs of each participant.

Why Literacy?

Improving literacy improves people’s lives—research shows that people in Canada with higher levels of literacy, numeracy, and problem-solving skills report better health and stronger connections with their communities and society. Literacy upgrading also has a positive impact on higher earnings and job retention. 

Volunteers change lives

Each year, our volunteers give thousands of hours to tutoring math, reading, and writing; reading stories; helping with special events; and supporting our book donation program.

From helping children read a favourite book to supporting adults as they work to improve their skills, volunteers are key to creating a culture of literacy in Canada.
