Help provide children with books and reading resources with a donation of $1 or more to Reading Is Fundamental (RIF), the nation's leading children's literacy organization. There is a significant children's literacy crisis in our nation, with twenty-five million children in the U.s. not reading proficiently. The pandemic has created even greater learning losses among our nation's children, especially among children of color and those in under-resourced communities. RIF believes every child deserves an opportunity to own books, discover a joy of reading, and obtain the fundamental literacy building blocks to create brighter futures. Donations to RIF help further RIF's efforts to combat the literacy crisis students today are experiencing, including support of the Race Equity & Inclusion Initiative and RIF's Social & Emotional Learning Center. The former helps children in the most underserved communities across the U.s. by providing access to high-quality diverse books and reading-engagement programs to ensure every child has the tools to read. The latter will support children in developing social and emotional skills and competencies that help shape their thoughts, feelings, and actions in order to succeed in life. For over 20 years, Macy's and RIF have worked together to get books into the hands of children and have raised over $46 million dollars and distributed over 16 million books through this partnership. Together we can make a real difference and set our children on a path of growth and opportunity. Join us in supporting RIF until every child reads.
