Merry Christmas, 2007.

On this day of giving and receiving, please remember those who can give and receive less.

In particular, please think of the children who now face a future with lowest literacy proficiency. These children need our help, and I again want to remind you about my article about what you can do.

If you had never learned to read or write, what would your world be like today? Can you imagine being surrounded by people who cannot read or write, or read or write well?

“Our Future Depends on Our Literacy” challenges you to get involved with an organization that knows that our future depends on our literacy.

Please read the article and then take action in whatever way works for you.

Thank you. By giving a little, you can help others and get a tax deduction before the year ends.
