Getting Involved

It is difficult for many of us to imagine not having the resources to obtain books, but this is the case with so many children RIFSoCal serves. RIFSoCal books are often the first book in the home, becoming the beginning of a personal home library.

With service to Los Angeles County’s most resource-deprived children since 1972, RIFSoCal has witnessed thousands of life-changing moments and received innumerable testimonials from grateful participants. We are now into our second and third generation of RIFSoCal “kids.”

RIFSoCal will build the personal libraries of more than 100,000 children in the Greater Los Angeles area in the 2010 – 2011 program year, distributing over 300,000 new books of choice at more than 300 sites, including Title I public and parochial schools, Head Start programs, and community-based organizations.
