Friends of the Children-Boston

Our next 20 Years, 20 Friends honoree is a foundation who has been and continues to be instrumental in supporting a transformation of our Improved Health programming and who’s been a crucial partner in our growth – the One Four Three Four Foundation. friendsboston.org/news/20-years-…

This month's Achiever Spotlight focuses on a current Achiever who's only been with the Friends-Boston program for a short time: Zahra. #AchieverSpotlight #CelebrateAchievements #EmpowerYouth #NoMatterWhat friendsboston.org/stories/achiev…

We were excited and honored to be the recipient of an FY2025 Healthy Summer Youth Jobs Grant from @MassAGO. These grants benefit youth workers by providing training and skills development in employment that's focused on #health and #wellness. We're grateful for their support!

Our Achievers have been working hard at boxing this summer, and it's paying off! #Boxing #EmpowerYouth #NoMatterWhat

It's been amazing to watch Simone Biles at this year's Olympic Games in Paris! She truly is the #GOAT, and we're proud to have her as a supporter and advocate for our work. Check out this great article by the @nytimes. #SummerOlympics #EmpowerYouth nytimes.com/2024/08/05/wor…

Another day at the Olympics means another medal for Friends of the Children advocate and supporter @Simone_Biles. She took home her sixth gold medal yesterday, and continues to inspire our Achievers to dream big and achieve their goals. #DreamBig bostonglobe.com/2024/08/01/spo…
