Seeds of Literacy is a nonprofit organization that provides free, one-to-one tutoring in basic education and high school equivalency (GED/HiSET) preparation to adults in Ohio. By using a unique, relationship-based curriculum and personalized tutoring, the program accommodates learners at various academic levels, aiming to address illiteracy as a root cause of poverty. The organization emphasizes flexible enrollment and schedules, operates year-round, and incorporates technology to support its instruction, with outcomes described as having higher retention and graduation rates than the national average. Based in Cleveland, Ohio, Seeds of Literacy runs two classrooms—an in-person location on West 25th Street and a virtual tutoring option for Ohio residents—as part of its mission to serve the local community.
