Earlier this month the Friends of the Fiske were thrilled to receive a Community Impact Grant from Eversource MA. Molly Cullen of EverSource, is pictured here with the Friends' Board Members, presenting the Grant. We were grateful to receive a similar grant last year, which allowed us to sponsor multiple programs for children and adults. We look forward to this year's Grant, which will assist us in sponsoring additional initiatives and programs to serve our community and to continue supporting the Fiske Public Library.
