Join your neighbors for a holiday stroll while helping a good cause!
Let’s get together for a safe, socially-distanced holiday celebration to benefit a good cause!
Friday, December 18, 5 to 7 pm
(Inclement weather date: December 19)
Don’t be a Grinch! Join your neighbors for a fun night of socially-distanced mingling to benefit My Brother’s Keeper, aka MBK617.
In lieu of a registration fee, we are asking participating Tumblers to donate a gift to benefit MBK617 for local families in need. Gifts will be collected at the first stop on the Tumble. At the first stop, you will receive a ticket for the rest of the Tumble stops. A map will be provided to registered Tumblers on December 17.
Don’t want to Tumble but want to give to a good cause? We will have a designated spot to drop off donations through December 20:
If you weren’t able to register for the Tumble but would still like to donate, we will be collecting donations through 5 pm on Sunday, December 20. While MBK617 collects gifts for all those in need, the need for children 10-18 is usually greatest. Appropriate gifts include toys, clothes, and gift cards. We suggest keeping the cost of individual gifts between $15-30. More than one donation is welcomed! Gifts should be unwrapped. Gifts can be dropped off on the front porch or mailbox at 4 Windermere Rd, Apartment 1. Ring the first-floor doorbell to let them know you have left a gift.
MBK617 is a Dorchester-based nonprofit created to provide mentoring to young men and boys in the Boston community aged 8 and up. The goal is to show the youth that they can make choices that will lead them to increased academic growth and professional opportunities. Through the pursuit of these opportunities, they will grow to become an asset to the community, and leaders of the next generation. To learn, more visit https://www.mbk617.org.
