Our Supporters

Our volunteers couldn’t have the impact they do without the donations of individuals, businesses, local organizations, government and foundation contributors. The number of literacy tutors and students we can help is directly related to the funding we have to support them.

We are proud to recognize members of the Communicators Society in gold. These partners have invested in the future of LVFV by pledging $1,000 or more for a five-year period. Supporters who have made other multiple-year pledges are highlighted in royal blue. The list below represents donations made over the past 12 months.
