Project Description

Country: USA

Location: Grant Public Library

Total Budget: $1,000

Areas of Focus: Basic education and literacy, Economic and community development

Activity Type: Education: Literacy

Summary: Reading/Seating area for children at public library. Grant Public Library, Grant, Nebraska, US


The need has been identified by our local library that there is not a seating/reading area for children. The library is utilized by many children after school and during the summer for reading programs. Our goal is to utilize the grant funding to provide seating for children to sit and read in the library, encouraging growth in literacy. Our goal is to accomplish this in the 2013-14 Rotary year.

Our project has been completed! The librarian reports that each day, the seating area is in use many times, by parents reading to children, older children reading and even adults who have some spare minutes.
