Celebrating Mother’s Day

For over 30 years, the Women’s Inn has been the largest nonprofit resource in New England for women experiencing homelessness. The brunch celebrated the start of a major capital improvement to the Women’s Inn, with new windows to be installed over the coming months. Current 30-year-old, deteriorated windows will be replaced with 313 energy-efficient windows that will also bring in additional natural light.

Lead funding for the project comes from the Yawkey Foundation, which has provided approximately $1.1 million toward the project, including a recent $500,000 grant as part of a multi-year, transformational $15 million commitment to Pine Street Inn. This commitment, the largest in Pine Street’s 50+-year history, announced in December 2021, is helping accelerate expansion of the organization’s housing by creating 400-500 new permanent supportive housing apartments within a five-year timeframe.
