Chatham Literacy

First United Methodist Church is a proud supporter of Chatham Literacy! The Chatham County Literacy Council helps adults, living or working in Chatham County, N.C., acquire the literacy and educational skills they need to function successfully in society. Chatham Literacy is always looking for volunteers who would like to serve as tutors, which they provide training for to our community members in need. Various groups use the church facilities for instruction, tutoring, and informational meetings. Those looking for opportunities to become involved or needing assistance can find more information on Chatham Literacy’s website.
