Have you seen Rita? 519-286-0400 Literacy: more than a book. Rita DeBook is London’s newest Literacy Advocate. Starting May 27th and every Thursday until July 29th, Rita will be “hanging out” somewhere in London. People who spot Rita are asked to call the Rita DeBook hotline and give their name, phone number, Rita’s location, and an explanation of how Rita’s activity is related to literacy. A winner will be drawn from all those that call the hotline that day. The Fresh FM Summer Cruiser will find Rita each Thursday and announce the winner from that location. What a great way to have some fun and promote literacy. Community literacy is important to address because 45% of Canadian adults don’t have the necessary literacy skills to cope in our society.
