Help us financially!
We're building a Mosaic of Hope!
Each student brings their own unique story, culture, and language to Fox Valley Literacy. Just like the pieces of a mosaic, every donation helps bring these stories to life, creating a beautiful Mosaic of Hope in our community. Join us in making this mosaic even brighter by adding your donation and your story today.
Whether you contribute $25 or $500, every piece of the mosaic makes a difference. Your gift ensures we can keep offering essential literacy services, supporting our staff, and fostering a brighter future for all.
At Fox Valley Literacy, we are dedicated to empowering adults in our community through education. With approximately 1 in 7 adults in Wisconsin struggling with basic literacy, your financial support is crucial in helping us provide free classes and essential resources to those in need.
Fox Valley Literacy programs are completely free for all learners. We rely on the support of our donors to bring accessible adult education to our community.
Your donation can make a significant impact—whether it helps fund instructional materials, supports transportation for students, or enhances our programs. Every dollar brings us one step closer to breaking the cycle of low literacy and fostering a more educated, engaged community.
Join us in making a difference! Donate today to help us continue our vital work and change lives for the better. Visit our website to contribute and see how your generosity can create lasting change.
About our mural
Completed in October 2023, our vibrant mural (pictured) by Haitian-born artist Gregory Frederic symbolizes hope, resilience, and community. Conceived by our students, tutors, and staff, it brightens downtown Appleton and serves as the inspiration for our year-end campaign, a reminder that together, we build strength and opportunity.
Mr. Frederic is award winning painter, muralist, and a former English learner who has executed commissions for many organizations, including the Green Bay Packers, Appleton Public Library, Northeast Wisconsin Technical College, Austin Straubel Airport and at many fine art galleries. He teaches various art classes to aspiring artists with disabilities as an instructor for ARTS For ALL Wisconsin and often teaches from his own studio in Green Bay. Frederic continues to create unique paintings to add to his list of satisfied collectors worldwide. View and support Gregory Frederic's work here >
