Hello all,

Thank you to Daphne Greenberg for posting this  announcement on the Women in 
Literacy Discussion List.
 


Dollar General Literacy  Foundation

www.dollargeneral.com/community/dgliteracy.aspx   

Scope: The foundation seeks to increase the functional literacy of  adults by 
providing grants to nonprofit organizations dedicated to the  advancement of 
literacy. The foundation chose to focus on adult literacy because  company 
co-founder J. L. Turner had only a third grade education but overcame  tremendous 
odds and built the company now known as Dollar
General  Corporation. 

Deadline: Next submission deadline is April 8

Funds:  In 2004, the foundation awarded more that $1.5 million to 136 
nonprofit  organizations across the company's 30-state market area.

Eligibilty:  Nonprofit 501-C3 organizations within Dollar General's market 
area that are  committed to increasing the functional literacy of adults or 
families and  provide direct literacy services are eligible.

Contact: Dollar General  Literacy Foundation, P.O. Box 1064,
Goodlettsville, TN 37072-1064
