Send Flat Stanley to the Pea Green Boat
 Attention Kids... Send Flat Stanley to the Pea Green Boat
This week on the Pea Green Boat, Annie is reading the book Flat Stanley. If you haven't heard of him, Flat Stanley is an ordinary boy who ended up flat as a pancake as a result of a little accident with a bulletin board. The good news is now he fits in an envelope and can be mailed to friends far and near.

| Northwest Area Foundation Grant Funds News Reports on Poverty Issues |
Over the next two years the Montana Public Radio News Department will be presenting regular feature stories about issues of poverty in Montana. This project is made possible with a two-year, $78,500 grant from the Northwest Area Foundation. The funding will enable Montana Public Radio to add a half-time reporter to its staff for the duration of the project, as well as cover costs for field recording equipment and travel throughout western and central Montana. News Director Sally Mauk says, “I’m excited about the project and the opportunity to get our news staff out to many Montana communities to report on such an important and timely topic.”
The Northwest Area Foundation approached Montana Public Radio with this opportunity for funding coverage of poverty issues, after beginning successful projects with Minnesota Public Radio and Seattle’s KUOW last year. The Northwest Area Foundation’s mission is to help communities in an eight-state region (including Montana) reduce poverty. www.nwaf.org.
