Reading Is Fundamental
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.

Distribution of books at Samuels takes place 3 times per year.
