Recently, the Marinette and Oconto Counties Literacy Council, Inc. received ProLiteracy, a $3,000 grant through the Nora Roberts Foundation.
The Literacy Opportunity Fund grant helped purchase 1,000 new, revised council brochures and partially paid for 50,000 paper placemats.
“These brochures and placemats spread the message of our council about programs and services to assist adult learners to read, write, speak English and understand the English language,” said Janet Glime, the council’s president and tutor trainer.
