Read Seed Inc

The Read Seed, Inc is a 501c3 non-profit, charitable organization whose mission is to support kindergarten and elementary school readiness by increasing access to high-quality, age-appropriate literature and offering other literacy supports in Mower County, MN.

Our first major project is establishing Dolly Parton's Imagination Library for children in Mower county. Dolly Parton's Imagination Library is a book gifting program that mails a free book every month to eligible children from birth to age 5. Inspired by her father’s inability to read and write, Dolly started the Imagination Library in 1995 for the children within her home county in East Tennessee. Today, the Imagination Library operates in participating communities across five countries.
