Dear Members,
Join us this coming Wednesday for a Ribbon Cutting ceremony to celebrate the Literacy Volunteers of Otsego & Delaware Counties new office space! The ribbon will be cut at 5:30 PM on February 26, 2014 and an open house with food and refreshments will follow.
The LVODC has dedicated over 20 years to helping those in need to overcome obstacles involving basic literacy in the area. By giving the LVODC a fresh welcome to their new office, we can show our support of an organization that has done so much to empower parents, sons, & daughters into being productive members of our society. Their hard work in this area has been a fantastic contribution to making our community a better place.
