📚 Literacy opens doors and changes lives!
The Trenton Rotary Club was pleased to welcome Jayana Shah, President-elect of Literacy New Jersey, as a guest speaker at a recent meeting!
Jayana shared the organization's mission of empowering adults through free educational programs, including reading and writing, English as a Second Language, digital literacy, job readiness, and citizenship preparation.
📖 Literacy New Jersey's 2025 impact speaks for itself:
✨ 7,135 adult learners supported
✨ 245,161 hours of learning completed
✨ 1,487 dedicated volunteer tutors
✨ 14,500 life-changing goals achieved
These numbers represent more than educational milestones. They reflect greater independence, new career opportunities, stronger families, and brighter futures for adults across New Jersey.
A big thank you to Jayana for sharing this incredible work with our members! We're proud to recognize organizations like Literacy New Jersey that embody Rotary's commitment to Service Above Self. 💙💛
