Welcome!

Welcome to the official blog of the charity Read 2 Feed the Need sponsoring the children’s literacy nonprofit organization, Reading is Fundamental (RIF). 

According to dosomething.org, in the US one in four children grow up without learning to read, nonetheless these children are eager to obtain the knowledge and reading skills and are passionate about reading as soon as they get a book in their hands. That is why we are here: to raise funds and spread awareness of our blog’s mission to support RIF in motivating all children to gain the ability read.  

To support and enable this, we help to fund RIF, which in turn provides new books to children as well as present them with enticing literacy activities. Read 2 Feed the Need raises money to donate to RIF which helps children’s literacy in different ways such as collecting and distributing books, presenting group reading, hosting literacy events, providing parent and teacher training, as well as teaching literacy activities. This is possible across the United States due to our volunteers in schools, libraries, child care centers, and community centers. 

With increased literacy comes improvement in child development and therefore a better education. With a better education comes more opportunities and more self-confidence. Read 2 Feed the Need’s goal is to help RIF make a difference in the lives of children by improving literacy and to encourage teachers and parents to help these children’s imaginations grow and their education progress. This is all possible through RIF.
