Every dollar donated helps purchase books for less fortunate children in local communities throughout the U.S. "Education is one of the keys to helping children become successful in life. During the holidays, The UPS Store hopes to make a positive impact by helping children break the cycle of poverty through literacy and education," said Tim Davis, president of The UPS Store, Inc. According to a 2011 study by the Brookings Institution, 22 percent of children are living in poverty. Through its holiday campaign, The UPS Store seeks to bring awareness to the issue of children's literacy. "Our nation's less fortunate children deserve the resources to learn and experience the joy of reading," said Lt. Gen.
