OUR IMPACT:

Each year, Fenway CDC improves the lives of over 2,500 adults, youth, children, seniors, people with physical disabilities and special needs, and formerly homeless residents. We help them access affordable housing, social services, education, food, and financial stability services. Boston residents who come to Fenway CDC build job skills, advance education, gain financial literacy, and learn healthy habits.
Fenway CDC enriches the neighborhood by organizing the Fenway Porchfest music festival and community events. We work with organizations across Boston engaging citizens to advocate for improvements in housing policies that will protect families from eviction; create more funding for affordable housing; and increase the number of affordable units.
