Editor Walter Anderson grew up in a violent, poverty-stricken neighborhood and books were his key to survival.  “I could open a book and I could be anything.  I could be anywhere.  I could be anyone… I read myself out of poverty long before I worked myself out of poverty.”

In 2004, RIF distributed 17 million books to five million children, but 1 million children remain on a waitlist for our services. Your donation helps us inspire a lifelong love of reading in America's most vulnerable children.
