Seidel Reading Forever Grants Top $7,400
February 27, 2012
This month a record $7,470 was
granted to public and nonpublic schools in Wicomico County from the Samuel W.
Seidel Memorial Reading Forever Endowment Fund to purchase books for their
students.
The Seidel
Reading Forever Endowment is a charitable fund of the Community Foundation of
the Eastern Shore. Since the fund began
making grants in 1994, a total of $98,330 has been distributed to schools in
Wicomico County for the purchase of books for libraries and classroom
collections other than textbooks.
The Reading
Forever Fund was established by a gift from Samuel W. and Marilyn C. Seidel to,
“instill and foster a love of reading among the youth of Wicomico County,” by
providing annual grants to schools that serve grades K through 12 that participate
in the Reading Forever program.
