As with many great stories of humble beginnings, Learning Matters began in 2006 as a conversation between two friends who shared coffee and dreamed of a place where kids, regardless of their family's income, could receive the academic support they need to thrive. Today, Learning Matters tirelessly serves the 1-in-5 students impacted by Dyslexia to narrow the opportunity gap and offer them a voice in the trajectory of their lives. Corporate gifts, foundation grants, and individual gifts help us to provide prescriptive-level intervention to students whose families could otherwise not be able to afford it. Learning Matters hosts the Music City Run for Dyslexia to raise awareness and harness the power of community.
