Your Impact
BMC is not only home to world-class clinicians and innovative treatments—we also are pioneers of programs that impact lasting good health. Funds raised through the Columbia Threadneedle Investments Boston Triathlon support our work to drive equitable health outcomes. Here are just a few examples of what philanthropy helps us do:
- Economic Mobility: Wealth = better health outcomes. That’s why BMC created an Economic Justice Hub to offer financial coaching, pathways to jobs, free tax preparation services, and more for families when they come in for appointments.
- Nourishing Our Community: Our hospital-based food pantry, the first-of-its-kind in the nation, distributes more than 1 million pounds of nutritious food to patients and their families each year. BMC’s Teaching Kitchen uses fresh ingredients in our healthy cooking and nutrition classes for our community. Some of the fresh produce used by these programs is grown at our two Rooftop Farms.
- Urgent Health Needs: One in five children and adolescents in MA has a behavioral health condition, but stigma, workforce shortages, and social factors can prevent timely care. To combat the rising mental health crisis, BMC is expanding TEAM UP, an initiative integrating behavioral health into pediatric clinics in community health centers and removing barriers to care for patients in historically marginalized communities.
