Cocktail Reception
Fund-A-Need Giving Opportunities

We invite you to join us as we celebrate 25 years of partnering with the RI medical community to bring the joy of reading and connection to families around the state. The Reach Out and Read RI program began with just 5 healthcare sites and we now proudly serve families at nearly 70 practices and healthcare centers. Last year, over 100,000 books were given to children at their well-care visits while their doctor shared guidance and support with their parents/caregivers to encourage daily reading.
