Giving to RFB&D

RFB&D encourages and accepts a wide variety of gifts that support our educational and outreach services that open doors to educational opportunity for students with print disabilities.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, RFB&D has no guaranteed sources of income. Gifts, which are fully tax-deductible, are vital to our future. RFB&D is changing the way students with visual impairments and learning disabilities learn. RFB&D's AudioPlus® digitally recorded textbooks on CD and RFB&D's AudioAccess^SM downloadable audio textbooks are bringing unprecedented ease of access to educational materials, while our educational outreach program continues to place our accessible textbooks in classrooms across the United States.

With your generous support, RFB&D's audio textbooks can dramatically improve the educational outcomes for thousands of students who are blind or visually impaired, have a learning disability or other physical disability. Every gift is truly appreciated. View our videos A Song of Success - Colette Young and RFB&D and Building Confidence, Building Lives to see the impact RFB&D has on the lives of students with print disabilities.
