Ways to Sponsor an ALTA Student

Ways to Sponsor an ALTA Student

One out of four adults in Trinidad and Tobago is unable to perform basic, everyday reading and writing skills.

Less than half the adult population can read and understand the newspapers and simple medicine labels.

 

In Trinidad and Tobago today if you are not literate, you are left out of life.  Literacy is the key to a good job, access to services, participation in community, school and church. Sponsoring an ALTA student will enable ALTA to continue offering free literacy classes to the national community, benefiting existing and potential literacy students.

 

In the spirit of giving, sponsor an ALTA student at a class in your community or anywhere around the country for $200 TTD (for one term) or $600 TTD (for one year).  If you donate $600 you will receive a report of the progress of the student you chose to sponsor at the end of the year.
