"Steven (pseudonym) had been working really hard to learn letters/sounds and sight words. It was often challenging for him, but he persevered.

About Us:
The Somerville Foundation is a catalyst for change -
Built on the base of the Somerville Education Foundation, we reinvest community growth resources in the people of Somerville to create a more equitable and vibrant city. We value equity, justice, and liberation. We exist in our city for its people — to systemically empower those who have been systemically disempowered and to create conditions for everyone to realize their human potential. We function as a catalyst to ignite and shape the efforts of effective organizations working towards transformative change in our city. By investing in our community, we believe the Somerville Foundation can help build community wealth, and create a pathway for a more equitable and vibrant Somerville. We act as a force multiplier. We connect and amplify work through an equity lens, focusing on the most vulnerable members of the Somerville community.
