KISS THE PIG IS HAPPENING NOW

Our Annual Fundraiser is Needed Now More Than Ever

We postponed our annual Kiss the Pig fundraiser last year due to Covid. During the 2021 ONE WEEK campaign, candidates raise awareness for adult literacy as they collect “votes” from their family, friends, and colleagues. Each vote is $1 and the candidate with the most votes the night of the finale wins the honor of kissing the (virtual) pig!

We’re Going Virtual!

April 18 – 25, 2021
