The United Way mission – to create positive, lasting change for people in need – focuses on two foundations to better lives: financial opportunity and educational success – the building blocks for a good quality of life. For years, Boston Mutual has worked with the United Way to support local initiatives with groups in need.

The Salvation Army serves more than 25 million Americans – or one person every second – from a variety of backgrounds and is helping more people in the United States than ever before. The organization is always in need of support in assisting the increasing number of Americans seeking the necessities of life: food, shelter, and warmth.

“Making Strides Against Breast Cancer” walks are the largest network of breast cancer awareness events in the nation, raising critical funds to support the American Cancer Society. Thousands attend the annual walk in Boston every October and we proud to have a Boston Mutual corporate team participate each year.

My Brother’s Keeper is a vibrant, welcoming ministry in Easton and Dartmouth, Massachusetts, providing furniture and food free of charge to local families. Over the past 29 years, they have grown from a husband and wife team to 11 employees and 4,000 volunteers that have worked together to make 125,000 total deliveries to families and individuals in need across the region.

Each year, Boston Mutual provides gifts for children at the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (MSPCC), helping to make their holiday special and joyful. MSPCC is dedicated to leadership in protecting and promoting the rights and well-being for children and families, offering a variety of services across the state since 1878.

In recognition of those who have served our country, Boston Mutual employees collected a variety of donations during our “Month of Giving” for the VA Healthcare System hospital in Brockton, Massachusetts, which offers veterans a wide range of healthcare options and support.
