Birmingham Jumpstart

A Word from the Director:

In today’s world, literacy is more important than ever. The ability to read, communicate, and continue learning opens doors to employment, independence, confidence, and opportunity.

At Birmingham Jumpstart, we see firsthand how education changes lives. Every class attended, every English lesson practiced, every GED goal pursued, and every volunteer hour invested helps strengthen not only individuals—but our entire community.

We are grateful for every student, volunteer, supporter, and partner who continues to believe in this mission. Together, we are creating brighter futures one step, one lesson, and one success story at a time.

Thank you for standing with us as we continue serving Birmingham through literacy, education, and hope.

Stacey Brian Lewis
Executive Director

Our mission is to empower teens and adults through tailored literacy and
English-language programs, foundational education, and essential life skills.

Our unique, step-by-step programs are designed for individuals who:

• Are new to reading or have foundational skill gaps.

• Have found reading challenging in traditional settings.

• Prefer new concepts introduced in digestible segments.

• Benefit from highly organized and sequential learning.

• Seek to improve their basic reading comprehension for greater achievement.

We are working diligently to build a stronger, more literate Birmingham.

On Tuesday, May 19th, we will be on the patio of Rojo Birmingham for our Share Night!

From 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., Rojo will generously donate 10% of all sales to support our free literacy, ESL, and GED programs for adults and families in our community.

Your dinner can help change lives through the power of literacy. We want you to invite a friend, share this post, and come dine for a great cause at one of Birmingham’s most beloved neighborhood restaurants!
