Miller (LHM) Group of Companies focuses on enriching lives, and LHM Charities helps us achieve this mission by supporting nonprofits that assist women and children. Funding stays in the state where it is contributed and is directed toward programs that address the issues of health and education. In Utah, a grant from Larry H. Miller Charities is assisting the National Center on Shaken Baby Syndrome, a nonprofit based in Utah. The charity works to protect infants and young children by teaching parents how to recognize and respond to normal infant crying. Parents are also educated about the dangers of shaking a child. Funding was also given to Race SWAMI, a local swim club that focuses on providing swimming opportunities to underserved youth who live in Glendale, Rose Park, and other communities on the west side of Salt Lake City. The club also teaches life lessons to swimmers and involves them in community service work. A donation to the English Skills Learning Center is supporting a family literacy program that serves low-income parents who are not proficient in English so that they can support the academic progress of their elementary-age children. In addition to helping caretakers learn English, the program provides free books so that the children can begin building in-home libraries. Funding granted to Common Ground Outdoor Adventures will provide outdoor recreation clinics to youth with disabilities. You can enrich lives in your local community by making monthly contributions to Larry H. Miller Charities through the Give Us 5 payroll deduction program. Any amount is welcome, and Gail Miller supports these efforts by matching employee donations dollar-perdollar. Contact your payroll or human resources administrator to learn how you can sign up.
