Southern Minnesota Initiative Foundation (SMIF), in partnership with publishing companies Capstone and ABDO, is accepting applications for its Early Literacy Grant program.
This grant is designed to support early literacy efforts that enhance school readiness for children birth to age eight by providing children with books.
Nonprofit organizations working with these children and their families in SMIF’s 20-county region, which includes Goodhue, Wabasha, Winona, and Olmstead Counties, are encouraged to apply.
Applications are due to SMIF by March 5, 2024 at 3 p.m.
The book pickup dates for awarded organizations will be held on June 12 and 13, 2024 in Owatonna.
