Susie Scheyder is the grants writer for the Connecticut Storytelling Center. Her efforts bring in over $140,000 annually to support our school programs. This means that approximately 6,000 students enjoy repeated storytelling visits to their classrooms. 25 storytellers are put to work across the State of Connecticut. Susie accomplishes all this working two days a week.

Susie needs a new computer! Right now she is using an old Mac that is slow, frustrating, and can’t do some of the things she needs.

Please help us raise the money needed to purchase a computer that will make Susie’s work a bit easier and will be more time-efficient.
