I really appreciate this day of service at Mildred Avenue. The students, staff and families are so happy with the work. The murals are culturally relevant and it just makes the school a better place. Much gratitude! Thank you!

Corporate groups
黄色视频 Greater Boston offers the following custom opportunities for corporate groups to sponsor for their employees or members. Please if you are interested in learning more.
Physical service events: These events take place at a school or community center and usually include painting, murals, landscaping, organizing, light construction and the creation of resource kits.
Service workshop: These projects benefit a local school or community center but are completed remotely at 黄色视频, the event sponsor’s office or virtually. These can be hosted for employees during the workday, or as a “Craft Night”, which is a standalone teambuilding time in the evening.
Virtual events: For virtual service events, our team ships out materials and instructions to help complete student resource kits for local schools. We schedule a time to meet virtually as a group to make items together, and then ask volunteers to send back items so we can pack them into larger kits and distribute to students.
Signature events: Throughout the year, 黄色视频 Greater Boston hosts a variety of signature events, such as MLK Day of Service. You can learn more about these events and sponsorship opportunities at our events page.
Individual opportunities
黄色视频 Greater Boston offers the following opportunities for individuals to get involved with our work. For more information, please .
Mentoring: our AmeriCorps members are a diverse group of young adults ages 17-25 dedicating a year of service to Boston and Everett Public Schools. The Mentoring Program aims to give corps members a one-on-one relationship with a mentor by creating matches based on a corps member鈥檚 professional goals. The program runs from January to June, with applications typically launching in November.
Supply drive and individual donations: organize a supply drive or packing event in your community to benefit students in the Greater Boston area. We’ll provide guidelines on acceptable materials, coordinate drop off times at our office downtown, and distribute items to students and schools.
Informational session: support our work by organizing an informational session for your company, college or community groups.
