THANK YOU CAPITAL GROUP

Thank you Capital Group Companies Charitable Foundation for yet another $10,000 grant! Over the past 11 years they have awarded us $94,000 to further our quest of sharing a love of literacy with the children of Los Angeles.

A special shout-out to Taskforce Member Dalet Brady for helping secure this funding that will enable Reading to Kids to continue to inspire children with the joys of reading.
