Why does the Laura Bush Foundation for America s Libraries target only schools with a very high percentage of students who qualify for free or reduced price lunch?
The Laura Bush Foundation for America ‘s Libraries understands that most schools need money for books and that school and library budgets are often inadequate. However, because funds are limited and research shows that children in low income families are least likely to have access to books, we are targeting the nation’s neediest schools and students for grants. In order to establish need, the committee is using the widely known and reported “free and reduced price lunch percentage” as its criteria for establishing need.
