Why Your Gift is Needed
The SPARK Center relies heavily on institutional
(BMC) funds, state and federal grant support, and
the generosity of private foundations, individual
donors and volunteers. Unfortunately, in recent
years, federal budget cuts have weakened critical
services to the neediest, including childcare and
special services to children living with HIV/AIDS.
Most children at SPARK live in poverty with parents
and caregivers who struggle daily to maintain the
integrity of their families.
The SPARK Center recognizes the importance
of providing high quality medical and
psychotherapeutic services free of charge to its
unique population. Your contributions help us
meet the individual needs of each SPARK child and
maintain excellence in staff training, programming,
and all aspects of our special facilities. Undesignated donations for specialty teachers, general operating expenses, special equipment, and classroom supplies are also greatly appreciated.
Volunteers and Interns
Volunteer assistance with children and with daily demands of program operation are always welcome. Internship and training opportunities offer another exciting way to get involved. For more information about volunteering or interning at SPARK, please call Barbara Armandt at 617.534.2050, option 9.
Call us and come for a visit. Together we can meet the challenge!
