Here is a new grant opportunity that may be useful to those of you working
with adults with LD.

BellSouth Foundation Opens Submission Period for
        Opportunity Grants

 Deadline: March 1, 2004 (Concept Papers)

 The BellSouth Foundation ( http://bellsouth.com/ ), an
 endowed trust of the BellSouth Corporation devoted to
 education in the southeastern United States and other
 communities where BellSouth operates, invests the majority
 of its Special Initiatives funds through a targeted
 request for proposal process. In addition, a limited
 number of Opportunity Grants are available for unsolicited
 proposals that compliment Special Initiatives or issues
 where the BellSouth Foundation is currently focusing its
 work.

 This year, the categories for funding have been broadened
 to include proposals that address key issues of interest
 to the education community. These new issues of interest
 for 2004 are:

 Technology & Learning -- Grants in this area will be
 awarded to support further exploration of incorporating
 "student voice" to build meaningful use of technology for
 learning for students.

 No Child Left Behind -- Grants in this area will be
 awarded to districts seeking support to fulfill
 requirements of the national No Child Left Behind
 legislation.

 Business/Education Partnerships -- Grants to help
 strengthen existing partnerships between school districts
 and local businesses, and in helping to foster new
 partnerships for change that promise lasting results.

 The BellSouth Foundation generally does not provide
 funding for programs that have an impact outside of the
 nine southern states BellSouth serves or selected
 BellSouth markets, or for organizations that are not a
 501(c)(3) nonprofit or governmental entity.

 Initial Concept Papers may be submitted online. See the
 BellSouth Foundation Web site for complete guidelines,
 funding restrictions, and information on the foundation's
 Special Initiatives.
