The Literacy for Life Fund supports family literacy programs in community centres and libraries across Manitoba. In addition to fostering language and reading skills, these programs help build more confident parents, stronger families, and healthier communities.
The Literacy for Life Fund makes grants of up to $4,000 to support family literacy programs that engage parents/caregivers and children of all ages. These grants help bring books, storytelling, healthy play and quality time to thousands of Manitobans every year.
