50' Handicap Ramp

Emergency Need – A friend of The Boston Project had spinal surgery and now needs a ramp to his house. A volunteer team including construction contractors are needed to build the ramp to code. Plans have been drawn and footings are already poured.

Fall Opportunities

In additon to our Saturday Service Days, we have several special volunteer needs. Contact us for more information.

Tree Trimming: Adult help is needed to cut back two trees on our property which overhang the street.

Garage Renovations: Adults needed to frame two exterior walls - a great one day project for a church team.

Banquet for the Homeless: On Saturday, December 11th we will help Starlight Ministries host a banquet for the homeless. Pies, cakes, Christmas cookies and delicious side dishes are requested to complement a turkey and ham dinner.

Thanks for the Van

A family from South Dakota recently donated a mini-van to The Boston Project.

Snow Blower Needed

During the winter, The Boston Project cleans the sidewalks in front of our home, a neighborhood park, and for our local seniors. We need a strong snow blower able to clean a large path.

Help: Leaking Roof

The Boston Project's roof leaks in over six spots and $7,000 is still needed to make the repairs. We hope to fix the roof in October, but can do so only with your help. Generous donors have sent over $4,700 towards the project (Thank You!). Donations still needed.
