Community Literacy of Ontario

CLO Publications

CLO is pleased to provide our online resources free of charge to the Ontario literacy community. However, we are a small non-profit organization with a small core operating budget. We would ask that any non-literacy organization who chooses to download our online resources donate a small fee of $15 per resource via the PayPal button on our website. CLO is not a registered charity therefore no tax receipt will be issued for any amount donated. Thank you for your support!
