<p class="MsoNormal">Hello everybody, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you’re still looking for summer funding, Oregon Community Foundation has opened 2 grant options for community-based organizations – you! - that may be worth looking at –
<a href="https://oregoncf.org/grants-and-scholarships/grants/">Early Childhood Summer Support and K-12 Learning grant</a> programs. The Early childhood grant looks pretty flexible, amounts will vary and has a May 25<sup>th</sup> deadline. The K-12 grant is
a rolling application, the minimum grant is $15,000 so would likely work best for larger libraries.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you have questions, FAQS at the bottom of both grant descriptions offer contact info for Oregon Community Foundation staff.
