Snapdragon Book Foundation


Expires: 2013-04-15

http://www.snapdragonbookfoundation.org/

The Snapdragon Book Foundation seeks to foster children’s literacy by providing grants to school libraries throughout the United States serving disadvantaged youth. In a time when many schools are reallocating their funds to technology and audiovisual equipment, the Foundation hopes to make sure that school libraries are still offering children good books to read. In the past few years grants have ranged from $800 to $20,000. K-12 private, public, and charter schools are eligible to apply. The application deadline is April 15, 2013. Application guidelines and forms are available on the Foundation’s website.

As always, we are such fans of Campus Compact (both national and state chapters). Without your assistance, we could not have achieved many of the milestones we have enjoyed over the past two years. Among many other developments, these milestones include hiring a full-time Service-Learning Coordinator; forming a University-wide advisory committee that includes representatives from each school and from the community; and creating a course development series for faculty and their community partners."
