The District Dish: Washington Literacy Council/Love Letters for Literacy

Gregory Gerald, an Alum of the Washington Literacy Center, details how the Center helped him to realize his self-worth — and gain a job skill — through overcoming many of his problems with literacy.

Now a voracious reader of political papers, Gerald is excited to announce the involvement of Politico’s Jim VandeHei and Bloomberg View’s Margaret Carlson at the nonprofit’s upcoming fundraiser (Tuesday), Love Letters for Literacy, where he will join them and other local notable to read aloud personal letters of love and other selections.
