Langley Literacy Network

Why Volunteer?

  • Volunteers bring positivity, optimism, enthusiasm, and share diverse perspectives that result in enhanced learning outcomes for the community.
  • Langley Literacy Network creates a learning environment where volunteers are trained and supported, contribute in meaningful ways, are valued, and have the opportunity to develop their skills.

Volunteer Opportunities

  • Community One-on-One Learning (COOL) Program: COOL pairs adult learners aged 19+ with a trained volunteer tutor. They meet for 1 to 2 hours a week, and it contains one on one personalized/individualized learning for the specific needs of the learner (which is created by the tutor).
  • Wrap-a-Read Volunteer: Families registered with the Langley Christmas Bureau can pick a new book for their child during the Toy Depot Days. Volunteers assist families with selecting books for their children.
  • Reading Buddies – Teen Volunteer Opportunity: This program pairs high school students with kids in grades 1-3 who need extra help with reading. Reading buddies must be available 1 hour per week to read with a young reader.
  • Conversation Circle Facilitator: Lead group sessions for ESL speakers wishing to improve their English. Volunteer facilitators are needed once a week for 1-2 hours.

Langley Literacy Network also offers a wide variety of programs for many. Check out their website for more information!
