At Boston Harbor Hotel, our commitment extends beyond five-star hospitality. We are deeply rooted in supporting and uplifting the local community. From partnerships with nonprofit organizations to sustainability initatives and neighborhood engagement, we take pride in giving back to the city we call home.
Rosie's Place, the nation's first women shelter, offers more than emergency shelter and meals. Their services include a food pantry, ESOL classes, legal aid, wellness care, personalized support, housing and job search assistance, and community outreach. During our visit, we volunteered by preparing and serving lunch to over 500 women in need, supporting their mission of empowerment and care.
The Greater Boston Food Bank is the largest hunger-relief organization in New England and one of the largest food banks in the country. Dedicated to ending hunger across Eastern Massachusetts, GBFB distributes millions of healthy meals each year to individuals and families in need. Our team proudly supported their mission by sorting and packing food for local distribution centers serving communities throughout the region.
As volunteers at Feed the Funnel, we joined hundreds of community members in packing over 591,000 meals for families in need across Greater Boston. Hosted with the Pack Shack, this impactful event supports local nonprofits and reflects a shared commitment to fighting hunger. We are proud to contribute to such a meaningful, hands-on effort to help our community.
When we come together in service, small acts become something greater. By giving our time, resources, and heart, we help our community shine a little brighter.
Bakes for Breast Cancer
For many years, we have proudly participated in the Bakes for Breast Cancer initiative. From May 9th to May 15th, we featured our special Strawberry Rhubarb Oat Bar. 100% of the proceeds were donated to support breast cancer research and care. We are honored to continue this tradition.
Community Hosted Events
Summer in the City is a beloved community event that brings local and vistors together for free outdoor entertainment all summer long. This concert series highlights local talent, supports artists, and fosters connections through music and shared experiences for everyone in the community to enjoy.
Small Brand, Big Impact
At Dandelion, we believe small brands make a big impact. We're proud to feature women-owned and small-owned businesses that pour heart, passion, and purpose into everything they create. Supporting small businesses means supporting real people, real passion, and real impact.
Giving Thanks to Boston's Heroes
Each year on Thanksgiving, we proudly serve a festive feast to the brave team at Boston Fire Rescue Company 1. Complete with roasted turkey, classic sides, and desserts, the annual meal is our heartfelt thank you to the firefighters who spend their holiday protecting our city.
The Boston Wine & Food Festival is proud to support The Greater Boston Food Bank as we work together to make a meaningful impact on our community. This partnership deepens our commitment to helping local families in need. By joining forces, we need to strive to drive positive change, celebrate culinary excellence, and bring people together through a shared passion for food and wine.
We are proud to partner with Boston Harbor Now to enhance the beauty and accessibility of Boston's waterfront.
