THANK YOU TO THE CAPITAL GROUP COMPANIES CHARITABLE FOUNDATION
Reading to Kids is the proud recipient of a $9,000 grant awarded by
The Capital Group Companies Charitable Foundation.
We especially appreciate their continued support of our program during these difficult economic times. This generous
funding will allow us to continue to bring a love of reading into the lives of thousands of young students
throughout Los Angeles.
We would also like to thank super-volunteer Dalet Brady, who championed this grant for Reading to Kids!

of the three charities and SwoopOff will distribute proceeds with 30% of its revenue to the most popular, 15% to the
