The Wetaskiwin Public Library is applying for the New Horizons for Seniors Program federal grant for 2012. The New Horizons for Seniors Program (NHSP) is a federal grants program that supports projects led or inspired by seniors who make a difference in the lives of others and in their communities. The program supports projects addressing the following objectives:
· promoting volunteerism among seniors and other generations;
· engaging seniors in the community through the mentoring of others;
· supporting the social participation and inclusion of seniors.
The funds will be used by the Wetaskiwin Public Library in the following ways:
· purchasing resources for the homebound service delivery program
· arranging for transport expenses for seniors to attend the programs at the library
· cover expenses for guest speaker presentation series
I am requesting for a letter of support to go along with our application that is due on Monday, September 12
