Just 10 days left—and less than $5,000 to go!

We are incredibly close to reaching our matching goal of $75,000... all because of a community that continues to show up in ways we never could have imagined.

There's still time to make your impact go twice as far. Every donation made before the deadline will be DOUBLED. Plus, you'll also be recognized on our donor wall in our new literacy center.

Help us close the final gap. We're almost there! 📚✨

Transforming a long-vacant building in Muskegon Heights into a vibrant Literacy Center, expanding free programs and strengthening community through literacy.

We’re still soaking in all the love and support from our soft opening earlier this week and have so many more photos and thank-yous to share in the coming days.

We wanted to start with our ribbon-cutting ceremony and recognize some of the incredible partners who helped bring our vision to life: our staff, board and campaign cabinet members, the Erhardt Construction team, and architect Andrea Riegler.

A ribbon cutting may last only a few moments, but it represents years of planning, partnership, collaboration. We’re proud of what we’ve built together.
