Celebrating 30 Years of Volunteerism: 1991-2021
In 1991, a group of friends gathered around pizza to discuss how they could facilitate volunteerism in Boston to support local organizations addressing critical needs in the community. They saw a need and found a way to address it by forming Boston Cares. 30 years later, Boston Cares volunteers continue to meet critical community needs, and have contributed over 1.3 MILLION hours of service to hundreds of Greater Boston schools and nonprofits, helping to address hunger and homelessness, working to bridge economic and opportunity gaps, improving education spaces, addressing health and wellness needs, and so much more - including stepping up when needed most in response to COVID-19.
Join us at 7 pm on April 6, 2021, for a virtual celebration of 30 years of service to the Boston community and a presentation of our annual Boston Cares Awards recognizing outstanding volunteers and partners.
