- Read_Seed abstract "Read Seed, Inc is an organization based in Durham, North Carolina, founded in 2001 by A. Banks, that focused on increasing childhood literacy among at-risk populations through book ownership. Their mission changed in 2012 to focus on literacy education, advocacy and demonstrating benefits of early childhood intervention. Their mission and purpose is based on strong support in educational literature that identifies the availability of books and other forms of print in the home as one of the most important factors contributing to successful development of conventional reading skills and academic success. From 2002 until 2010 thousands of books were freely given to children in mid and eastern North Carolina Counties. Literacy programs included free books to North Carolina Housing Authority youth, establishing free Community Bookshelves in waiting areas frequented by low income families, Seeding Summer Reading by giving every elementary student in several schools a free book at end of school year. With bookseller partners like Barnes & Noble in Durham, NC books were given to hundreds of children each Christmas for 'Book under every tree' initiative.Read Seed works with government, business partners and education stakeholders to improve literacy in North Carolina, to help promote statewide book giving and share their mantra that 'Education is Everybody's Business.'".
