Collaboration Grant from the Miles Foundation, the Morris Foundation and the Rainwater Charitable

RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Ratify the application for and authorize acceptance of a Morningside Briscoe Parent Engagement
Project grant from the Miles Foundation, the Morris Foundation and the Rainwater Charitable
Foundation for the Library Department for the period of October 1, 2014 through July 31, 2015 in the

Grants Fund in the amount of$37,168.00, upon receipt of the grant.
DISCUSSION:
The Morningside neighborhood of Fort Worth has been identified as an area of high need to improve
educational outcomes for children. Because children who enter kindergarten ready for school have been
shown to have better educational outcomes than their peers who lack the necessary skills and because
parents are young children's first teachers, strategies are under way to reach parents whose children are
not enrolled in pre-kindergarten programs. In April 2014 the Miles Foundation, the Morris Foundation and
the Rainwater Charitable Foundation jointly issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for grants to support
parent engagement/education efforts in the Morningside neighborhood for families with children ages birth
to five years old. In response to this RFP, the City of Fort Worth Library Department (Library) submitted a
Logname: 842014 MORNINGSIDE COLLABORATION GRANT Page I of 2
proposal, in conjunction with several partners, for a Morningside Parent Engagement Project.
The program activities will engage parents and their children at Fort Worth Independent School District's
(FWISD) Briscoe Elementary School in early learning and literacy readiness and familiarize these families
with the school before the children enter kindergarten. The Library's partners in this project are Briscoe
Elementary School in the FWISD, The Parenting Center and Literacy United. The Library's Youth and
Teen Services staff will conduct programs as an in-kind match in an amount up to $17,800.00. The
Parenting Center and Literacy United will also conduct programs.
Funding for the Morningside Parent Engagement Project is funded as follows:
Miles Foundation $ 4,829.50
Morris Foundation $ 4,829.50
Rainwater Charitable Foundation $ 9,659.00
Total $19,318.00
Up to $7,500.00 will reimburse the FWISD for the additional cost of operating the school library on
Saturdays for the duration of the project, $11,128.00 will fund the costs of learning materials, books and
other supplies, and $690.00 will fund consultant costs of Literacy United to deliver programs. Anticipated
interest of$50.00 will be used to further the program objectives.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Financial Management Services Director certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations,
receipt of the grant and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in the
current operating budget, as appropriated, of the Grants Fund.
