[Michlib-l] Deadline for FOML's "Harriet Larson Founder's Grant" is September 30th

[Linda Pierce]

In honor of a founding member of the Friends of Michigan Libraries, FOML
awards up to two grants annually.


Each “Harriet Larson Founders Grant” is worth up to $400 each. They are
designed to help Friends groups in their efforts to support, enhance and
showcase their local library. The grants will be awarded by the Grants
Committee based on the following priorities when reviewing applications,
provided an applicant meets all of the eligibility requirements:



1.   A new Friends group is being officially formed;

2.   A Friends group that is being rejuvenated, with a higher priority
given to a group with a longer period of inactivity;

3.   An existing Friends group has a proposal for increasing membership,
increasing community awareness, or a proposal for a novel approach to
advocating for their library in the community.



“Harriet Larson Founders Grant” applications received by September 30th of
each year will be considered at the following FOML Board meeting.



All applicants should be aware that the purchase or rental of equipment
(such as audio-visual equipment or kitchen appliances) needed to implement
the activities or events associated with this grant are not considered
valid expenditures.

The grant form has been designed for you to complete within Adobe Reader on
your computer and you can find it here
