“Literacy is the key to so many opportunities. Events such as this fabulous celebration of Peter’s support of literacy can help Canadians unlock the door to a new life,” says Sherry Campbell, President of Frontier College. “We are helping children, youth and adults improve their literacy skills so that they can reach their potential at home, at work, in school and in their communities. This is exactly what Peter had in mind when he began to raise money for literacy in Canada 25 years ago.”
