Giving: Your Way

Leadership Giving: The Literacy Trust
Each year, friends and supporters of the Literacy Council provide flexible resources that help sustain CFLC’s programs and legacy of service. Leading these vital efforts are members of the Literacy Trust — donors who commit to contributing a specified amount annually for five consecutive years (see levels below).
This leadership-level giving allows our programs to reach more adults who want to improve critical literacy skills. When you go above, students at the Cape Fear Literacy Council can go beyond and achieve their goals.
We appreciate the support of our Literacy Trust members! Members are listed in the annual Cape Fear Literacy Council Honor Roll of Donors which includes all donors who made a gift from January 1 through December 31, 2022.
