The Book Love Foundation believes that a love of reading is essential. We assist teachers with building inclusive classroom libraries to inspire and nurture a lasting love of reading. The Book Love Foundation seeks teachers who demonstrate a passion for promoting a hunger for books. These teachers recognize the diversity of every class of readers and they challenge each student to build an independent reading life of increasing depth and joy. Teachers who apply for a Book Love Foundation grant must demonstrate that they are already committed to the support of readers through current classroom practices and curates a book collection that represents our world. Applicant must be a full time preK-12 classroom teacher in the United States or Canada. Applicant must demonstrate an ongoing commitment to independent reading and book clubs as regular classroom practices.
Applicant must be willing to maintain the Book Love Foundation library in the applicant's classroom. The books received from this grant are not intended for a school-wide library or to be permanently divided among teachers. Creative sharing, however, is always encouraged.
Grant awards in 2021 will range from $1000.00 to $2000.00. Books are chosen by the grant winner to meet the needs of the students he/she teaches. For more information and to apply, visit the website: https://www.booklovefoundation.org/apply
