BSHC Awarded $7,500 Grant from M&T Charitable Foundation
Grant provides critical support for older adults, individuals with disabilities, and caregivers in Boston
Boston Senior Home Care (BSHC) is proud to announce that it has been awarded a $7,500 grant from the M&T Charitable Foundation. At a time when older adults are facing growing uncertainty about the services they depend on, this support comes at a critical moment. BSHC is deeply grateful for M&T Charitable Foundation’s commitment to helping Boston’s most vulnerable residents.
BSHC serves more than 13,000 residents aged 60 and older across some of Boston’s most economically and culturally diverse neighborhoods. Many rely on the agency to remain safe at home and in the community, receiving home-delivered meals, personal care assistance, caregiver support, and access to community-based programs. Support from M&T Charitable Foundation helps BSHC keep pace with growing demand and continue providing the services that older adults, individuals with disabilities, and caregivers (including grandparents raising grandchildren) need to maintain their independence, health, and community connections.
“We are grateful to the M&T Charitable Foundation for this meaningful investment in our mission,” said Meg Hogan, CEO of Boston Senior Home Care. “This grant supports our ability to serve older adults and families across Boston who depend on us every day and reflects exactly the kind of community partnership that makes that possible.”
The M&T Charitable Foundation has a long-standing history of supporting community initiatives that strengthen neighborhoods and improve residents’ quality of life.
