Project Description

Country: USA

Location: Windsor, CO

Total Budget: $6,000

Area of Focus: Basic education and literacy

Activity Type: Education: Literacy

Summary: Restocking our existing little free libraries in Windsor/Severance, CO with children's books.


The Little Free Libraries that were built and stocked with a previous grant have been so successful that our Club has had a very hard time keeping them stocked with children's books. We have learned that the Little Free Library Organization sells boxes of used books which can

be shipped to our member's homes. Purchasing used books will make our Rotary dollars go farther. In addition, our Windsor High School Interact Club has become more active in the past two years and they are willing to hold book drives during the 2024-2025 school year. Club members continue to be active in maintaining the libraries and stock them when books are available.

Ann,

Your 24 -25 club President still needs to send in the club qualification answers. Once we receive those we will send the MOU which also needs to be signed and sent back to us.

They also need to enter your club Foundation goal into Rotary Club Central.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Ann,

I apologize for the delay in paying your grant. For the first time we received more grant requests than DDF was available. We cannot request the DDF till the report balances. To make that happen we have decided to cut the DDF from every grant. Your DDF request of $3,000 will be reduced to $2,700.

If you have any questions please let me know.

Ann,

Byron has still not signed the grant and we have not received the qualification answers or the signed MOU. I cannot approve the grant until all of this is completed. Let me know if you want me to send him the link to the qualification questions and the MOU again.

Ann,

Has Bryon sent the qualification answers and the signed MOU? I have not seen anything so you might want to check with him.

Ann,

I know someone was going to help Bryon figure out what he needed to do for this grant but as of 12/4/24 I have not received either the qualification answers or the signed MOU. Do you think at this point the club still wants to do the grant? It has been since June so I'm going to set a deadline of December 31 2024. I will need to delete the grant request if I have not received the MOU and qualification answers by that date.

If there is anything I can do to help please let me know.
