REFORMA Noche de Cuentos Mini-Grants - Apply today!
We're accepting applications for the 2020 Noche de Cuentos Mini-Grants Program through July 24, 2020. Noche de Cuentos (A Night of Stories) is a REFORMA family literacy initiative created to promote and preserve the art of storytelling within our Latino communities in the U.S. REFORMA believes that storytelling and the oral traditions are key to the transmission and preservation of culture, as well as a significant tool in developing literacy skills. REFORMA will award 8 mini-grants of $300 to support Noche de Cuentos programs (virtual or in-person) during Latino Heritage Month, September 15 - October 15, 2020. We invite libraries and community organizations to apply and to use the Noche de Cuentos website as a tool to help them develop Noche programs in their community.

Congratulations! 2020 Día Mini Grant Winners
REFORMA is committed to continuing supporting programing to Latinos and Spanish speakers in our communities - virtual and in-person. The time to review the applications and select the winners of our 2020 Día Mini-Grants Program came around the time the COVID-19 pandemic was developing, which prompted us to adjust the program timeline and guidelines. The winners were selected based on the creativity, level of community involvement, and showcase of Latinx literature and culture, as presented in their original submission.
