Advice for a community service project

[christiangirl]

Hey y'all, I've been stuck on this for awhile and I can't think of a better group of women to ask. My community service org. is right now trying to think of projects to raise the literacy rate in our neighborhood. We tried to create our own program, but it failed, so now we are trying to get the whole org. involved in tutoring with an existing program, until we are firm enough to start our own. Does anyone have any ideas on extra activities that we can provide, other than tutoring services? Like, I had the idea to dress up on Halloween, but we'll be dressing up as Black achievers that really created opportunities for our people, but children may not be familiar with (Billie Holiday, Lena Horne, Angela Davis, etc.) If anyone can think of anymore ideas, could you let me know? I'm trying to get a good range of them so when we come back in August, we'll have some projects to get going on. Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks everybody!
