My Hometown Helper

September 13th, 2006

I haven’t posted anything that a PR has sent me in years (just not my thing), but this one was too cute not to blog about.

From the e-mail:

“The folks over at Hamburger Helper are conducting a grant contest for local non-profit groups raising funds to positively impact their community in some way.”

“As a “library blogger” I thought that perhaps you might know of a public library or school that could benefit from the grant and would want to know about the opportunity.

Here’s how it works:

Every month through May 2007, Hamburger Helper will choose one 501(c)(4) organization for a monetary grant of up to $15,000. All the group has to do is to register online…and complete an essay of two hundred and fifty words or less describing how they the need help.

All of the application information can be found here“

Doesn’t seem like a lot of work to do to get $15,000, right? Any library could find a good home for this grant.
