Tony finau foundation literacy center - we converted one of the family engagement centers we previously donated to into a tony finau foundation literacy center in partnership with granite education foundation. The literacy center opened in august 2024 in west valley, utah, and provides daily literacy support for approximately 75-100 children through after-school programming. The center also expanded services to families by offering daily esl classes for parents and early-literacy activities for pre-k children. In its first year, the foundation sponsored the kinder kits initiative, distributing approximately 5,000 take-home literacy kits to every kindergartner in the district, with additional kits for 1st through 3rd graders currently in development for 2025. The center (continued on schedule o) also hosts quarterly literacy nights, which provide families with books, literacy kits, and additional literacy support.
