Which organizations have you supported as a fiscal supporter?
Mutual Aid Eastie: What started a program of Eastie Farm during the pandemic, became an organization that we incubated, and supported financially and administratively. Now Mutual Aid Eastie exists independent of us. How quickly they grow up! Movimiento Cosecha: We believe that immigrants are an essential part of our community. Movimiento Cosecha is a non-violent national movement fighting for protection, dignity, and respect for all undocumented immigrants. Harbor Arts Boston: We predominantly support the Harvest Mural Project and their mission to bring beautiful art to our public spaces.
