Join Team BMC for the Winter Walk, a 2-mile walk to end homelessness in Greater Boston. Create a team, join a team, or walk as an individual to raise funds for Living Well at Home, Boston Medical Center’s initiative to help patients find and maintain a safe place to call home.
Kick off Superbowl Sunday with us by making an impact for our neighbors. In addition to a route through Boston Common, Winter Walk features an inspiring program with stories from people experiencing homelessness. Gather your friends, family, and colleagues and step up with us!

Why Join Team BMC
Support BMC patients
A safe place to call home is key to good health. Your fundraising helps BMC’s housing programs address both immediate and longer-term needs of patients struggling with housing through help finding emergency shelter, navigating the process of getting a permanent home, maintaining stable housing, and much more. Hear from Benjamin, a patient supported by BMC’s housing services:
“Sometimes it might seem like it’s impossible for things to get better. There was a time when I didn’t think I’d ever find a place of my own, but now I’m so close. You have to have faith, keep your motivation, and stay focused. Good things are happening for me.” — Benjamin
Enjoy a special Winter Walk experience
Members of Team BMC receive:
- Personalized fundraising page to share with family and friends
- Custom fundraising tips and tools from Team BMC staff
- Plenty of content to help you learn more about BMC’s housing services
- Team BMC meetup area on walk day
- And more!
Check out the fun we had while making an impact last year.
Your Impact
Your donations and fundraising make a big impact on the patients and families who rely on BMC for care. Just a couple of ways Winter Walk funds are supporting unhoused families:
- $25 funds an intake meeting between a Living Well at Home Case Manager and a client experiencing homelessness
- $50 funds a housing stabilization home visit between a Living Well at Home Case Manager and a client experiencing homelessness
- $100 funds a half day of housing search to help house a client experiencing homelessness
- $3,000 provides intensive wraparound services for a year to assist a client experiencing homelessness
The Winter Walk supports BMC as well as 16 other local organizations working to end homelessness in Greater Boston. Learn more about Winter Walk.
