Ponca Tribe of Oklahoma

Log Number: NAB-250181-OLS-21

The Ponca Tribe will expand its library services for the White Eagle community in Oklahoma by purchasing new books and computers. The summer reading program, which provides a safe space for at-risk youth, will be enhanced with new books on Native American and STEM topics, along with materials that appeal to reluctant readers. They plan to add books about healthy lifestyle choices to their collection and expand computer lab services, which are often used by adults to study for their GED exams or conduct job searches. Grant funds will support the purchase of three new computers and free broadband internet service.
