Reader to Reader has been awarded a $7,500 grant from the Eugene A. Dexter Charitable Fund through the Community Foundation of Western Massachusetts. The grant supports the Springfield Mentoring Program which works with at-risk students in the Springfield Public Schools. The year-long program brings high schools students and Amherst College student reading mentors together to read and discuss books in order to foster a love of reading and boost academic achievement.
A special thank you to the Eugene A. Dexter Charitable Fund and the Community Foundation of Western Massachusetts for this grant.
