Claire Moore, from YALSA’s Leadership Initiatives Fundraising Taskforce recently interviewed Sean Gilmartin. He was the 2017 recipient of the Dorothy Broderick Student Scholarship, which is funded through YALSA’s Leadership Endowment. The taskforce’s goal is to raise $20,000 by the end of January 2018 to grow the endowment so that there’s enough interest to fund other leadership initiatives, like scholarships for a leadership e-course series that’s coming in 2018. So far, the taskforce has raised approximately $12,500. Any donation made now through Jan. 15th will be matched dollar for dollar by ALA. Please consider making a gift–any size helps, and ALA will double your impact!
