Rotary awards scholarships
Altrusa encourages “Reading for Fun”
As part of their “Reading for Fun” project, Altrusa Club of Ruidoso presented checks for $300 each to school librarians in Capitan Elementary School and Hondo Elementary School. The donations are part of Altrusa’s ongoing effort to promote literacy in the community, and will help the school librarians buy books that the children enjoy reading. This will help to encourage children to read more at an early age and help give them an appreciation for the pleasure of reading. Literacy is a worldwide initiative of Altrusa International, and is of particular concern in Lincoln County. New Mexico has one of the highest poverty rates in the nation, and one of the highest rates of adults with no high school diploma or equivalent. In Lincoln County it is estimated that as many as 45 percent of adults have attained only a Literacy Level of 2 or below (on a scale of 1 to 5), while nearly two thirds of all jobs today require literacy skills beyond level 2. For more information about the state of literacy in New Mexico, go to The New Mexico Coalition for Literacy, www.nmcl. org. For adults needing to improve their reading skills, Lincoln County Literacy Council, part of ENMU-Ruidoso Adult Basic Education program, offers free literacy tutoring. Interested in helping someone improve his or her reading skills? Or, do you know someone who needs help reading? Call Susie Morss at Lincoln County Literacy Council, (575) 630-8181.
