COMPLIMENTS AND SUCCESSES
Kelly Laraway, at NC State University, has recently had success with a grant proposal: "I just wanted to let you know that thanks to your Grant Alerts, I applied for a Target grant for my son's school and we got it! We are going to do a summer literacy program based on Curious George! It's called "Let's Get Curious About Reading." I would never have known about the source without this great tool. I love it! Thanks for the updates." Posted 7/31/08.
The Community Enrichment Organization ( www.webstar.bz/ceo ) in Edgecombe County has recently been awarded a grant from the NC Department of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention to implement the Support Our Students after-school program.
