This is an area where you may do fundraising activities... I hear chapters doing events such as Arrow-Spike, Mud-Tug, Crush sales, etc. Is that money going only to Arrowmont, or is your chapter diverting some to local philanthopic projects? If some is already going local, use it to fund your CAR project. What are you doing as "Links to Literacy"? Does it involve fundraising? The CAR program may replace or be a part of your "Links to Literacy" project.
I pulled out the information sheet from convention. The estimated cost for the entire program (and this includes the cookies for the party at the end of the month) is $5/student or ~$110 for a classroom of 25 students. That isn't a lot of money to raise to start.
I know you want to fund 4x that much but maybe if you start small and do one classroom fall term, you'll have the $$ for more by spring.
