LUNCHEON FOR LITERACY
The annual Women United Luncheon for Literacy brings together women from across the community to enjoy an inspirational keynote speaker, network with like-minded women, and support early literacy in Pickens County. The 2024 Luncheon for Literacy was held Thursday, March 21 and featured keynote speaker Wendy Burgess, Team Lead for Early Learning and Literacy at the SC Department of Education, and was hosted by Sydney Shadrix, anchor and reporter for WYFF News 4.
PRESCHOOL PAGES
Women United's signature program, Preschool Pages, is a partnership with local elementary schools to support the development of early literacy skills in preschoolers in the community. Young children and their caregivers participate in story time and related crafts and activities which helps these young learners develop important early literacy skills while learning that school is a safe and nurturing place. You can support children by donating books or funds for books, ensuring that each child can take a book home from the program to build their home library.
