OEP’s New Grant Recipient

Community Engagement Grants are happy to announce our next recipient! We asked Lauren to introduce herself and the project: 

"I’m Lauren Anderson and I am a junior at Walkersville High School in Walkersville, Maryland. On Earth Peace is partnering with my mom and me to place a little free library in my town. I hope to work with Little Free Library and local bookshops to get books that address social justice issues and bring awareness to racial, LGBTQ, and gender equality, among other things. It will include books for all ages and we will have read-alouds to promote the new library and bring the community together." 

 

Pictured above are Lauren and her mother, Karina Anderson. 

Applications for the Community Engagement Grant are being accepted on a rolling basis. If you are interested in applying or want more information, visit this link: https://forms.gle/4TEphhFPJRCQErQ27
