How does an Even Start Family Literacy project decide how much match can be claimed for in-kind services?
The project must determine the fair market value of in-kind services. For example: If a tutor in a local literacy council is paid $10.00 per hour, a volunteer tutor’s time may be claimed at that hourly rate. If the “market value” of a meeting room in a nearby facility is $50 per day, then a classroom provided by a local partner may be claimed at that amount.
