2024 has been a year of incredible growth and impact at LBFE Boston! Thanks to your support, we’ve expanded programs and our team, created new traditions, and strengthened our mission to combat loneliness among older Bostonians.

Your kindness has touched the lives of 1,000 isolated, many lower income, older adults living in public and affordable housing.

As we look ahead to 2025, we’re aiming even higher: to raise $120,000 in December to support 1,200 older adults. Will you join our “12 for 12 in 12” Challenge today? 🔗 givebutter.com/lbfeboston-EOY2024S
