Project Light

Project Light teaches people to read and speak English using computers through one-on-one relationships.

Project Light – Roanoke began with 2 students and 2 tutors meeting at the Roanoke public library in July of 2007. Since then, we have continued meeting on Tuesday and Thursday nights, and expanded to 5 students and 7 tutors. God has provided plenty of equipment and a new home at Community Life Church. The limiting factor is tutors. Project Light will reach the lost members of our community in proportion to the number of tutors available so call Jerry Cotney at (334) 614-2943 .


Could I tutor?

  • If you speak English, the answer is YES!

  • You will also need availability on Tuesday and Thursday nights, 6:30 – 8:00.

  • If you enjoy meeting and getting to know others, you’ll enjoy Project Light.


How else could I help?

  • If you have an old PC, you could donate it to us and write if off on your taxes.

  • Volunteering as support staff is also a good way to help at any time.
