A Summerside reading program puts seniors and young readers together.

Reading Pals is a program organized by the East Prince Seniors Initiative that pairs up Summerside senior volunteers with Parkside Elementary School students who need help with reading.

The program is wrapping up its first year and may expand to other P.E.I. schools in the future.
