Read for Books 2022

The Humanist Society (Singapore) is a participating organization of Read for Books 2022.

Organized by the National Reading Movement, Read for Books is a charity book drive to raise awareness and share the gift of reading with the less privileged. From 1 August to 31 August 2022, for every 10 people who read for 15 minutes, one book will be donated to selected beneficiaries. Beneficiaries for Read for Books 2022 are WondeRead and the Migrant Worker Library.

On 7 Aug 2022, the Humanist Society organised a gathering at V Hotel Lavender to read books and catch up with one another.

We collected 12 photos of people reading books!

For the remainder of August, eight more people contributed to the movement by reading in their own spare time.

The Humanist Society thanks everyone who has contributed to the movement and did a small part in helping the less privileged in Singapore.

This is the 3rd time we are taking part in Read for Books, following the previous efforts in 2021 and 2017. In total, we have collected 80 photos over the 3 sessions.
