Rain or shine, our Grant Committee is hard at work putting more books into the hands of Houston children who need them most.

Recently, committee members visited Prestige Learning Institute (PLI), an early childhood education program dedicated to preparing young learners for lifelong success through high-quality instruction and family engagement.

PLI is requesting books for children to take home while providing families with the tools they need to continue building literacy skills together beyond the classroom.

Ladies of Literacy Guild is proud to support Prestige Learning Institute and help ensure the children in their care enter kindergarten with the skills, confidence, and support they need to thrive.

Together, we’re helping build brighter futures—one book at a time.
