Review for Literacy Volunteers of Gloucester Inc, White Marsh, VA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

As a new volunteer tutor for LVG, I recently had my first student receive her GED! I was so happy for her when I heard that she had passed. A few days later she came to my office and brought me a personal "Thank You" note and a small ceramic angel! I saved the note and the angel sits on my dresser as a reminder of why I volunteer.

The people we serve often cannot afford to travel far, let alone pay tuition and buy books. Literacy Volunteers of Gloucester, Inc. provides a much needed service to those wanting to earn their GED.

I don't think the organizations needs to make any real changes. The Board is working on their strategic plan. They need more exposure, to develop a brand, and higher name recognition within the county.

Role:  Volunteer & Tutored a student helping her to earn her GED.
