Dollar General Funds Kansas Literacy Grants | Wichita News

Dollar General Literacy Foundation is pouring over $39,000 into Kansas youth literacy programs—funding schools, libraries, and nonprofits to boost reading skills for K-12 students. Part of a $4M national initiative, grants like $500 for Augusta Public Library or $3,600 for Kansas Humane Society are unlocking books, tech, and resources to level the playing field. Next round opens in January 2027, targeting communities within 15 miles of a Dollar General store—so educators and librarians, keep your eyes peeled. Strong literacy? It’s the bedrock of opportunity.
