Make Kids Matter is proud to announce a $10,000 grant from the Ross Stores Regional Giving Program in support of our youth literacy work across the West Valley.

This investment puts books directly into the hands of children in Avondale, Goodyear, West Phoenix, and Buckeye, and funds tutoring, backpacks and school supplies, and our family literacy events. Every book is given to children to keep, helping build home libraries for families who currently have none.

Thank you, Ross Stores, for believing in the young readers of our community.
