- Description:
- Welcome to the Reading Is Fundamental Group on Education.com
Reading Is Fundamental, Inc. prepares and motivates children to read by delivering
free books and literacy resources to those children and families who need them most.
Founded in 1966, RIF is the oldest and largest children's and family nonprofit
literacy organization in the United States. RIF’s highest priority is reaching
underserved children from birth to age 8. Through community volunteers in every state
and U.S. territory, RIF provides 4.5 million children with 16 million new, free books
and literacy resources each year.
All RIF programs combine three essential elements to foster children's literacy:
reading motivation, family and community involvement, and the excitement of choosing
free books to keep.
RIF's accomplishments are due in part to the generous support of the U.S. Department
of Education, corporations, foundations, community organizations, and thousands of
individuals.
