Please enter the Menino and Yawkey buildings through the Moakley building, and make sure to leave extra time to get to your appointment. Thank you for your patience.

Who Do We Help?

People like Beatrice*, 55, who is raising her three-year-old grandson in Boston. Beatrice earns $7,000 annually in her part-time jobs at fast food restaurants, placing her at 43 percent of the federal poverty level. 

Two years ago, she paid $400 for private tax preparation, an amount representing 17 percent of her tax credit and 6 percent of her annual earned income. During StreetCred’s 2016 pilot, we returned 100 percent of her $2,400 credit, money she used to buy previously unaffordable items for her grandson, such as toiletries, fresh produce, winter blankets, and a nightlight.

StreetCred has helped me in so many ways and that was a big thing for me. 

It's where I met Stephanie and she really helped me achieve my goals and sponsored me a lot. I've also met a lot of people through this platform, and I want to help them so that they have access to adequate resources. 

I always wished I had a credit card. Now I use it for everything I buy, travel for free, and even cash back on my credit card. 

This program definitely works, and I think it's a great program."
