ALSC’s Light the Way Grant Applications Open

ALA’s Association for Library Service to Children just opened its application period for it’s Light the Way Grant. If you are an ALSC member and serving children in need, you may want to consider this opportunity.

On their ALSC blog, they write: “Let’s be honest—we librarians are masters at making magic happen with minimal resources. We can transform a cardboard box into a rocket ship and turn pipe cleaners into STEAM learning opportunities. But what if I told you there’s $3,000 waiting to help you launch that dream project you’ve been sketching out on Post-it notes? Enter the Light the Way Grant, ALSC’s annual opportunity to fund innovative projects serving children in need. Whether you’re dreaming of creating a sensory-friendly programming series developing multilingual outreach services, or launching a mobile library program for underserved neighborhoods, this grant could be your catalyst for change.”
