In their efforts to promote children’s literacy, the Snapdragon Book Foundation is providing grants to libraries that serve disadvantaged youth throughout the U.S. Last year grants ranged from $500 to $2,000. This year the Foundation anticipates having more funds to disburse and encourages all K-12 private, public, charter, and experimental schools to apply.

The Foundation accepts applications via email through April 30th each year. Open ended questions on the downloadable application are designed to encourage extended answers. Access to application guidelines and forms is available by clicking here.
