Subject: Education, Reading, Literacy, Community
Deadline: Feb. 15, 2019
“Each year, the National Book Foundation’s Innovations in Reading Prize awards $10,000 to an individual or organization that has developed an innovative project which creates and sustains a lifelong love of reading in the community they serve. In addition, the Foundation recognizes four projects to receive the designation of honorable mention.
Applicants should:
- Share the National Book Foundation’s mission to expand the audience for literature in America;
- Focus on reading, and not exclusively literacy skills;
- Demonstrate innovation in mission, approach, and/or audience/community served;
- Apply for an existing program/project/initiative with evidence of success—as Innovations in Reading is a prize and not a grant, the goal is to reward work already underway, encouraging it to continue and/or expand.”
Funder: The National Book Foundation
Eligibility: “All U.S. citizens and non-profit organizations with 501c3 status are eligible for this prize.”
Amount: $10,000
