Summary

Inadequate Resources: This proposal is requesting 20 additional computers, associated software and funding for the Reading Club to accommodate 150 club members. We do not have enough computers in our library to accommodate all the girls simultaneously, leading to divided sessions or turning girls away. The additional computers will enable more children to participate in computer literacy ttraining, schoolwork and homework support and other library activities.
