Support Meridian St Fire Victims

Eastie Together

On the early morning of April 2nd, there was a devastating fire on Meridian st that displaced 30 people. The East Boston Social Centers has set up a link to donate to support the families displaced. 100% of the donations go to the families. We are not asking for material donations at this time. We are focused on raising money to provide the families with agency and dignity as they navigate this tragedy. We are grateful for any amount you can spare. Even $5. Please share the link below with your friends, family, and neighbors. Thank you.
