Play Word Games and Score Big for Literacy!
Registration is now open!
Join us for a night of fun and fundraising at the 20th annual Scrabble for Literacy event! This year, we're not only offering the classic Scrabble game but also adding 2 new games: Scattegories and Trivia. It's a fantastic opportunity to play, laugh, and compete for a good cause. Gather your friends, colleagues, or come solo - everyone can contribute to the cause and have a great time.
Presented by CIBC, this lively event will take place at Arcadian Loft in downtown Toronto on March 6, 2024. Beyond the word games, there'll be additional activities catering to various interests! Meet fellow participants, cheer on your team, bid on fantastic silent auction items, and savor canapés and cocktails in a competitive yet enjoyable atmosphere.
Whether you're playing with friends or solo, increase your winning chances with Helpful Assists, including word lists and guidance from Canada’s top Scrabble players. All proceeds support literacy programs. Since 2005, Scrabble for Literacy has raised $4.2 million for United for Literacy (formerly Frontier College).
What better way to help raise funds for literacy programs than spending a fun evening playing SCRABBLE and other word games!
