Despite strong local commitment to education, reading proficiency disparities persist among students from economically vulnerable and military-connected households. Literacy In A Box addresses these gaps by delivering curated age-appropriate boxes that include: leveled books, guided comprehension worksheets, vocabulary-building activities, and creative script-writing templates that integrate storytelling with reading comprehension.<\/p>\n<p>Each Literacy Box is designed not only to strengthen foundational reading skills but also to cultivate confidence, communication skills, and creative expression. Families and community partners participate in literacy exercises to reinforce at-home reading routines and engagement, magnifying program reach.<\/p>\n<p>Total Project Budget: 18,000<\/p>\n<p>Other Funding <br \/>\nSources For The Project (Committed &amp; Potential): State Farm, Gateway Terminals, Galbreath Heating &amp; Air, Huey Magoos, and Georgia Matters (all Committed)<\/p>\n<p>Project Duration: 12 months following grant award<br \/>\nGeographical Area Served: Bryan County, GA and surrounding rural communities, USA<br \/>\nAge Group To Be Served: 6-14<\/p>\n<p>Contact Information<\/p>\n<hr size='1' noshade='noshade' \/>\n<p>Contact Prefix (Mr,Mrs etc.): Mrs.<br \/>\nContact First Name: Lynnetta<br \/>\nContact Last Name: Smith<br \/>\nContact Title: Executive Director <br \/>\nContact Phone: 404-465-1735<br \/>\nContact Email: lynnetta.smith@cb2tb.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hermanowski Family Foundation Initial Request Form Organization Name: Combat Boots 2 The Boardroom Legal Name (if Different): Also Known As: Mailing Address: 10140 Ford Ave., Suite #5 City: Richmond Hill State: Georgia Postal Code: 31324 Main Phone: 404-465-1735 Main Fax: Organization Website: https:\/\/www.cb2tb.com Employer ID Number: 83-2629631 Organization Tax Status: 501c3 Proposal Information Today&#8217;s Date: [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9388","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-grants"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9388","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=9388"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9388\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9389,"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9388\/revisions\/9389"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=9388"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=9388"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=9388"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
