Features

Here we've compiled our collection of featured programs, donors and guest columns which demostrate the diversity of high quality programs, innovative grantmaking and intelligent individuals that make up our network in the out-of-school time field.  These profiles have been highlighted through our newsletters and while each is tied to a specific newsletter topic we also believe that they are valuable examples on their own. 

Current Featured Donor:

Competitive StreetSafe Boston Summer Grants are a key component of The Boston Foundation's StreetSafe Boston Initiative, as they support innovative summer programming that engages high-risk youth during evening and weekend hours in neighborhoods impacted by violence.

Current Featured Program:

Boston’s After-School Apprenticeship Program (ASAP) will go far beyond merely finding jobs to keep youth busy:  youth will be engaged in an activity that they love with the skills they need to obtain employment in the future.
