How we use your gift to Ellis Memorial
When you make an Annual gift to Ellis Memorial, you have an impact on the very heartbeat of the City: all the underserved children and families, the elderly and disabled. It is a lasting impact that reaches from the classroom to the community- at -large. Your gift is an investment that brings the rewards of providing daycare for a single mom needing to work or find a job, a young child for After School care and not alone at home or on the streets of Boston, and for the elderly who day-after-day is alone or is threatened to be relocated to a facility without friends and loved ones; it means supporting a community in need.
The return on your investment will be a future bright for all the Ellis Memorial children, families, and adults who are such an important part of our community and its future. It means you can make a difference!
Whether you are a long time supporter or are giving for the first time, thank you for your support.
