We are so grateful for this funding! Red Deer & area teachers and librarians jumped right on this and we have a waiting list. Thank you so much, @RDCommunityFdn, we're going to reach so many deserving kids in Central Alberta thanks to your generous support
Community Foundation of Central Alberta@RDCommunityFdn

A grant of $3450 was awarded to the @YABStweet for their Seeds of Stories program which provides author, illustrator or storyteller visits to Alberta schools at no cost to the school. We're happy to help foster literacy and a love of reading among central Alberta students.

Best way to end a day of virtual visits is to read an email from a third grade teacher about the impact I had on her students: "My kids have never been that involved and active during ANY writing virtual guest I have tried." Thanks @YABStweet for making this possible!

I have a library requesting some information about authors either living in Edmonton or willing to fly there for author visits. Other than @AuthorsBooking is there anywhere else I should direct them?
