At the urging of many neighbors, Fenway CDC continued our efforts to support the Boston Park Rangers’s Canada Goose egg addling initiative in the Fens by helping them purchase needed supplies, a fiberglass boat, and protective gear. We greatly appreciate this beautification grant fund from the Red Sox Community Benefits administered by the Boston Planning Development Agency.

Our vital work will help address the homelessness crisis in the Commonwealth.
