Friends on the Harbor Fundraising Gala

Many of Boston’s older adults are lonely and isolated and have no one to turn to in times of need or times of joy. Our nonprofit, LBFE Boston | Little Brothers -Friends of the Elderly, works to relieve that loneliness and isolation by offering weekly, intergenerational programs (by connecting older adults with local college students) in Boston’s public and affordable senior housing.  

This fundraising gala is an evening of dinner, live music, dancing, special guests, raffles, and silent auctions. By attending, you are supporting and creating intergenerational communities and lasting friendships through our social CitySites program. You are bridging the digital divide by providing laptop & internet access, and tech training, free of charge through our Digital Dividends program. You are making arts programs accessible to older adults through Creative Connections.  

You are making sure older adults are remembered on their birthday, the holidays, and every day. In the words of our friend Althea, age 82,  “I want to say thank you. Thank you to my beautiful friends, the beautiful staff, and all the beautiful people who make this possible.” 

Thank you and we look forward to seeing you on Sept 22nd!
