Reading Is Fundamental
 United States  / District of Columbia  |  Children/Education

To provide children with books, encourage family and community involvement, and motivate children to read through fun, literacy-based activities.

RIF is putting books in the hands of readers, nurturing youngsters hungry for knowledge and passionate about learning. RIF is everywhere you are—thanks to countless volunteers in schools, libraries, childcare centers, Head Start programs, parks, community centers, health clinics, migrant camps, and domestic shelters. RIF's programs are as varied as the communities they serve, but each contains the power of choice for the child and a can-do spirit from the parents, teachers, and volunteers who supervise the events—from an outdoor read-in to parent training to book distributions.
