Literacy through Legacy

Posted July 20, 2025

“Functional Literacy and Numeracy are a foundational legacy when shared as a gift with those who need and desire it.”

– Tia B. Kline, Founder, BOSS4EDUCATION

At BOSS4EDUCATION, we believe education is more than just curriculum—it’s a legacy. When we intentionally share the tools of literacy and numeracy with those who need them most, we are offering more than skills. We are offering hope, opportunity, and transformation.

Functional literacy empowers individuals to navigate the world with confidence—from reading a prescription label to understanding a job offer. Numeracy equips them to manage finances, interpret data, and advocate for themselves and their families.

This #MeaningfulMonday, we reflect on the power of passing down these tools—not just through instruction, but through compassion, access, and purpose. We see literacy and numeracy not as privileges, but as gifts that must be shared generously and equitably.

📚 Let’s continue to BOSS UP for literacy.

💡 Let’s nurture numeracy in our youth and adults alike.

🌍 Let’s build a world where functional literacy is the norm, not the exception.
