For each ticket purchased for Metropolitan Fashion Week Los Angeles 2024, Metropolitan Fashion Week will donate 5 books to children in need within our local communities, in partnership with the Kiwanis Literacy Club Foundation.

ABOUT KIWANIS LITERACY CLUB FOUNDATION

One in four children grow up without learning how to read.   Kids who don’t master reading by the 3rd grade are four times more likely to drop out of school. Even more alarming, two-thirds of students who struggle with reading by the end of 4th grade face a much higher risk of ending up in the system—whether it’s jail or welfare.

At the Kiwanis Literacy Foundation, we’re committed to changing this narrative. We provide books to children in need, particularly in “book deserts,” where access to books is severely limited. We believe that reading is more than just a skill—it’s a superpower. By giving the gift of literacy, we’re opening doors and creating brighter futures for all children.
