Welcome!
We are excited to know that you are visiting our website. The Boston Project is a community-based organization in Boston with a passion for seeing renewal in urban neighborhoods. We operate several neighborhood outreach ministries and also partner with over twenty faith-based and secular organizations to meet the physical, social, academic, and spiritual needs of people. Our motivation is our Christian faith and this principle summarized in the Gospels: Love God and love your neighbor.
Each year, we help mobilize hundreds of volunteers of all ages to be involved in compassionate service. Additionally, we will expand our mission by promoting leadership development opportunities for volunteers and staff.
We have several opportunities for you to serve and learn with us. We are best suited to host junior high, high school, college, and adult groups of Christian faith. Browse through our site for more information about Saturday Service Days, the Summer Missions Program for youth groups, Spring Break Trips, Weekend Service Retreats, and other volunteer opportunities.
During the summer, we also invite 20+ adults (college age or older) to lead our two main outreaches - the Summer Missions Program and Neighborhood Youth Ministries.
We currently are in the midst of an important Capital Campaign to buy a home for community outreach. The home is already being repaired as we are leasing space in it. We are now praying for 300 people or groups of people to donate $1,000 each to help us purchase the home. We believe God wants us to own this home debt-free for continued local ministry.
Over 60% of annual support comes from individuals and churches just like you. We invite churches, individuals, and foundations to partner with us to make life-change possible through our short and long-term efforts. Your charitable donation is foundational to making what we do together possible. If you would like to donate, you can do so here.
As you begin to explore our website, know that we are people who live with passion and purpose! We are daily challenged by the question from the Bible "Do you know what is good?" The answer: "To live justly, to love mercy, and walk humbly with God." Join us in living such a life by adding your gifts to what God is doing right now in Boston.
