LMWE does so much to help us. We really appreciate you. You especially help us around workplace English services. You help us build community. And you enhance our diversity efforts. I would like to see you offer some basic computer skills to our employees (I look forward to the day when we are an online operation) and maybe some writing courses for our workers.
