Reading is Fundamental Pittsburgh is a children’s literacy organization that works to lessen the literacy and achievement gaps in neighborhoods of need in Pittsburgh and Wilkinsburg.
This past year, we provided more than 80,000 high-quality, diverse books to more than 13,300 children this past school year and more than 3,500 children this past summer, and more than 8,000 at community events!
Our books come wrapped in programming that gets kids excited about reading and provides a network of literacy support that follows them from birth into their teens. Along the way, we reach out to families, caregivers, educators and the other important adults in youngsters’ lives whose involvement is crucial to their success.
