Literacy is for Everyone (LIFE)

An independent and registered non-profit, Literacy is for Everyone (LIFE) works alongside Government, local preschools, primary schools and educators and is dedicated to raising literacy levels in Cayman and ensuring access to quality education for all. It is the largest donor of books to the public school system and homes, with over 88,600 books donated and counting. LIFE offers a range of literacy intervention programmes, like its signature paired reading programme matching volunteers with students who would most benefit from this extra support. Its educational family engagement workshop, Partners in Print, provides parents and caregivers with advice and tips on how to support literacy in the home. Its early childhood programme, Thrive By Five, promotes the development of foundational literacy skills skills in the 0-5 age group. To donate or volunteer, email volunteer@life.org.ky.

You can also donate gently used or new books by emailing: books@life.org.ky.

Volunteers are always needed to help with projects, fundraise, or to read with children.
