Welcome to Friends of the Children – Boston!

Friends of the Children-Boston is a revolutionary mentoring organization committed to supporting, developing, and fostering high academic achievement and strong character development of children from at-risk and underserved communities to avoid cycles of poverty, abuse or violence and become successful members of society.

Friends-Boston provides children who are facing and reacting to risk conditions (Achievers) with twelve years of comprehensive mentoring, beginning in first grade and continuing through high school graduation. Each Mentor spends an average of eight hours every week with each Achiever year-round no matter where he or she moves in the greater Boston area. Our ultimate goal is that every Achiever will graduate from high school and continue on to college.

The 5th Annual Friend Raiser "Friends in Flip-Flops" was held on May 27th, 2010 at the Artists for Humanity EpiCenter. As a result of the hard work, dedication and commitment of our partners, the event raised a total of $300,000 to support our long-term mentoring program. Thank you to all our friends and supporters for making this year's Friend Raiser so successful!
