Reading is Fundamental (RIF)

What could me more fun than reading to pre-school and kindergarten children and then giving their classes free books?

Each year, our members visit classrooms in eight different Somerville schools to read and donate hundreds of books.

In 2024 our club will be donating 360 books to classrooms.
