<span class="inline-color" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">ALSC has received a $124,528 Youth Literacy grant from the Dollar General Literacy Foundation to help libraries provide out-of-school time STEAM learning for children. ALSC will award
fourteen $5,000 Strengthening Communities Through Libraries minigrants to ALSC personal members in public libraries whose libraries are within 20 miles of a Dollar General corporate or retail location. In addition to minigrants, ALSC will also develop supplemental
resources that will be made widely available to support the out-of-school time programming of libraries and their community partners.</span></p>
