Project Literacy and The View Winery & Vineyard have come together in support of literacy!
The View Winery is situated on a parcel of land that has been in the Turton/Ward family for 5 generations. Historically, fresh market apples were grown on the property. In the mid 1990’s a transition began, and vineyards and cider apples were planted. Spartans and McIntosh gave way to award winning wines of Gewürztraminer, Riesling, Ehrenfelser and Pinotage vines as well as cider apple varieties such as Belle de Boskoop, Chisel Jersey and Bulmers Norman.
In 2006, the family’s beloved old packinghouse built by Great Granddad Ward in 1922 was transformed into a winery and cidery under the direction of his grandson Chris Turton and great-granddaughter Jennifer Turton-Molgat.
Project Literacy is a charity founded in 1986. For the past 39 years, they have been helping immigrants, refugees and low-income Canadians with English, Math, Financial and Digital tutoring. They help many immigrants and refugees from Ukraine, Iran and Syria. They also help children in grades 1-4 who are struggling with their reading skills.
Project Literacy has over over 130 tutor/learner active matches enrolled in our programming. Project Literacy is entirely funded through community and provincial grants, corporate and individual donations. Please visit their website at www.projectliteracy.ca for more information.
Thank you for supporting immigrants and refugees arriving in the Okanagan every day!
