near a school with 50% of students</a> eligible to receive free and reduced price lunch? Then you may qualify for a grant to become an Afterschool Meal or Snack Program! Read the information below and visit
<a href="http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/page/?id=4013">ODE’s Child Nutrition Programs website</a> for more information about the grant.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">10 Oregon libraries were summer food sites and may be willing to talk with you about what is required and the impact on the library to help you decide whether or not becoming an afterschool food site is right for your library. You can find
out which libraries were summer food sites via the <a href="http://www.oregon.gov/osl/LD/youthsvcs/srp.certificates/2013SRPstatisticsAndOrders.pdf">
2013 summer reading statistic</a>s (pages 25-28) and their contact information via the

<p class="MsoNormal">We all know that kids are able to concentrate and do better in school when their stomachs are full. Do you work for an afterschool program that struggles to feed kids? Oregon has one-time grant funds available to help afterschool sponsors
cover the start-up costs for the At-Risk Afterschool Meal and Snack Program (AMSP). Funds are also available for sponsors who are currently running AMSP, but need help to increase participation.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Requests for funds can be up to $10,000 per organization. Applications are being received beginning now, through February, 2015, or until all grant funds have been expended (submit your proposal soon!).
