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
