Boston Cares

Boston Cares improves communities and the lives of people in need by mobilizing and training volunteers who help them. Boston Cares is the largest volunteer agency in New England, an Innovation Hub within the national Hands On Network and a leader in the volunteer engagement sector. We build relationships with schools, nonprofits and public programs with needs that can be filled by teams of volunteers; and then we recruit, train and lead reliable groups of volunteers who get the job done. Our year-round programs and seasonal service initiatives annually engage over 20,000 adults of all ages, children & teens and corporate partners in meaningful projects that benefit people served by 150 community partners.
