Want to host a program for seniors in your community? The Peggy Barber Tribute Grant is an annual grant of the American Library Association (ALA) that recognizes, promotes, and supports meaningful programs in libraries that have limited and/or no access to budgetary support for programming.
The grant, named after the late library leader Peggy Barber, aims to help ease library budget challenges by awarding three libraries $2,500 to support a proposed program, program series, or programming effort. Proposed programs may occur in a virtual, hybrid, or in-person format at your library.
For the 2024–2025 cycle, libraries are invited to submit applications to support programming related to combatting isolation for older adults. Examples include a technology training club to learn to stay connected online or a social club to bring adults together around an activity like crafting or gardening.
All library types in the U.S. or U.S. territories are eligible. Applicants must have a personal or institutional membership with either the American Library Association OR the Association for Rural & Small Libraries.
Visit the website for more information, including the grant guidelines, FAQs, online application link, and a PDF of the application for reference.
