Homework Assistance Program (HAP) Corporate Sponsorship

The Boston Public Library’s Homework Assistance Program (HAP) provides free, 100% accessible academic support for thousands of K-8 students in the city. HAP also provides employment and post-secondary skills development for over 50 high-achieving Boston ‘Teen Mentors’ each year. These exceptional youth deliver a cumulative 10,000 group and one-on-one tutoring lessons annually.  

In the midst of an ongoing global health crisis, more students than ever before are turning to HAP for after-school academic enrichment. As we transition to a 100% virtual program delivery, the Library needs support from companies like yours to expand this essential resource for the Boston community during this challenging and uncertain time.

Join the Grove Hall Branch and the new Roxbury Branch of @bplboston, Kevin Peterson, and @thenewdemocracycoalition this Thursday, September 24 at 7pm for an evening with Dr. Kerri K. Greenidge! Dr. Greenidge is the winner of the 2020 Mark Lynton History Prize for her biography on Boston's William Monroe Trotter, "Black Radical: The Life and Times of William Monroe Trotter" (Liveright, W.W. Norton). “Black Radical opens up a rich seam of inquiry that persists to this day, about the tug-of-war between reformers and radicals, and whether victories that seem purely symbolic at first can ripple out into real-world effects later on.” – New York Times (Times Critics Top Books of 2019) Register here: http://ow.ly/bUci50Bz0iP

#Repost @bplboston ・・・ 9/15 6-7:30pm: Join us for a Lowell Lecture with @kathrineswitzer: More Than Running: Changing the Course of Women’s History In 1967, Kathrine Switzer became the first woman to officially run the Boston Marathon as a numbered entrant. During her run, race official Jock Semple attempted to stop Switzer and grab her official bib; however, he was shoved to the ground by Switzer's boyfriend, Thomas Miller, who was running with her, and she completed the race. It was not until 1972 that women were allowed to run the Boston Marathon officially. Fifty years later, Kathrine Switzer successfully ran the Boston Marathon again at age 70.
