While the name of the summer program does not need to include \u201creading\u201d or \u201cliteracy,\u201d the successful applicant will demonstrate that a useful percentage of the children\u2019s time will be devoted to advancing literacy skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Applications will be evaluated by a grant review team from the NCCUMC Congregations for Children Committee.
