Dollar General Literacy Foundation to Support Online, GED Programs for English, Spanish Speakers
The Dollar General Literacy Foundation recently awarded the Dominican Learning Center a $3,500 grant to support adult literacy and English a second language education. This local grant is part of more than $8.6 million in grants awarded to more than 950 schools, nonprofits and organizations across the communities Dollar General serves.

“Not even a pandemic can stop learning!” said Denise Hilliard, Director of the Dominican Learning Center. “Our tutors and learners have been incredibly resourceful in their use of technology, and this generous gift from the Dollar General Literacy Foundation will help this continue. The Dollar General Literacy Foundation grant will support fund our use of Aztec, an online learning tool. We are working to give our learners the tools they need to continue to learn even when they can’t meet with their tutors.”
“The GED testing sites may still be closed, but we are using these funds from the Dollar General Literacy Foundation to pay for books and materials that strengthen and broaden the skill sets of our adult learners,” Hilliard continued.
