Announcement
I am pleased to announce that for another year, Volunteers for
Adult Literacy in Florida, (VALF) will be awarding one or more grants for up to
$500 to one of our members. Go
here to get the application. The VALF membership
application is at the end of the application.
VALF uses a two-step process for taking applications.
A draft application is due November 4. The VALF board will review the
draft and provide the applicant feedback on how to improve the application.
Applicants have the chance to rewrite the application with the final
application due January 31. This two-step process allows VALF to provide the
value added service of giving technical assistance to our members on how
to improve the grant. This helps our members improve their grant writing
skills.
The winner of the grant is announced at the VALF Annual meeting
held during the Florida Literacy Coalition (FLC) Conference in spring 2017.
VALF is an all-volunteer organization. Grants are funded by donations from board members and others.
