Make Good

Make Good believes in building a more equitable society by providing immediate, on-the-ground impact to Los Angeles’ most vulnerable children and youth. Through our signature programs: the book foundation and tay shop at the emporium: foster resource and literacy center, we offer targeted programs to those most at risk of falling behind. We believe being literate goes beyond words and books. It includes financial and nutritional literacy, social and emotional intelligence and having one’s needs met with dignity and respect. We avoid a duplication of effort and provide deeply enriched programs by partnering with ‘best-in-class’ organizations to effect positive and lasting change.

Inspired by foster care counts’ goods for grades program, the TAY shop was founded in early 2017 to provide transition age foster youth(TAY)in LA county with new clothing, essential items, and or course books, to help ease their transition into adulthood. We partner with job training and mentorship programs to provide a personalized shopping experience for TAY youth at our storefront. This curated shopping experience is complemented with on-site life skills and literacy workshops for TAY youth.
