Statistics show one in three children entering kindergarten lack the basic skills they need to learn to read, and two-thirds of U.S fourth graders do not read at grade level.
Sinclair, Inc. is partnering with Reading is Fundamental (RIF), the nation's leading children's literacy non-profit organization, to help with their efforts in creating lifelong readers.
Sinclair will be raising funds to bring books and reading resources to children in communities across the U.S. that need them the most through our Sinclair Cares website throughout the month of March, which is National Reading Month.
The Sinclair Cares: Supporting Children's Literacy campaign will also be supported by a $25,000 donation from Sinclair.
Since 1966, Reading Is Fundamental (RIF), has provided nearly 430 million books and reading resources to over 160 million children. RIF partners with educators, families, and literacy advocates to bring books and reading resources to children in the communities that need them the most—and in the process, creates new generations of lifelong readers.
