About Reading Is Fundamental
Reading Is Fundamental is the nation’s leading children’s literacy nonprofit. By bringing books and reading resources to kids, we inspire a joy of reading, sparking imaginations and possibilities, and putting children on a path of reading proficiency. We work with our partners to change the trajectory of the literacy crisis by ensuring that every child has the opportunity to learn, discover, and achieve their full potential.

Rally to Read 100
Twenty-five million children in the U.S. are not reading at a proficient grade level. The pandemic has only caused greater learning loss with the lowest reading levels in 30 years. We must come together to unite our nation of educators, families, and volunteers to rally around reading. We want to thank our incredible roster of authors who donated their time and talent to provide the monthly read-alouds, publishers for providing the rights to ensure all kids have access to quality read-alouds through Rally to Read, our Inspiration and Promotional Partners for making a third year of Rally to Read a reality, and the thousands of educators who let us come into your classroom each month to inspire a joy of reading. Together we will rally until every child reads.
