The Ezra Jack Keats Foundation has actively fostered children’s creativity and love of reading since 1985. The Foundation awards 70 EJK Mini-Grants for arts and literacy programs annually to public schools and libraries across 50 states; administers the EJK Bookmaking Competition, for grades 3-12, in the nation’s largest school system; and with the EJK Award, encourages  exceptional early career authors and illustrators to create children’s books that reflect our diverse culture. The 30 minute documentary, Tell Me Another Story was made by the EJK Foundation to bring attention to the need for inclusive children’s books. The EJK Foundation is proud to protect and promote the work of Ezra Jack Keats.
