Free One-on-One Tutoring
We provide FREE private tutoring in reading and math to any resident in Carteret County. Our only requirement is that "you have to want our help."
Annual Business Spelling Bee
We organize our Spelling Bee each year in October. If you love to spell or if you simply love to watch others have fun trying to spell difficult words, this event is perfect for you. This event is open to the public, and cheering is encouraged! Click

Outreach
We will come to your location and do a presentation on literacy, at no cost to you. If your club, church, non-profit group, business, or group wants to know more about the importance of literacy, please
contact us by telephone or email.
Bringing Books to Babies
Every baby born at the Carteret General Hospital receives a new "board book" and a packet of information about the importance of reading to a child. This program is funded through private donations.
Head Start Storytelling
We maintain a lending library, and volunteer storytellers read to the children.
