Most Bostonians and Boston tourists know the Back Bay Trinity Church Boston, the historic landmark in Copley Square. But few are aware of the social outreach and engagement that takes place behind the Church's impressive stonewalls.
Founded in 2007, the Trinity Boston Foundation is the service arm of Trinity Church. The Foundation's mission is to unlock opportunities and change the odds for Boston's underserved youth.
Every day Boston receives hundreds of reports of abandoned bikes, overflowing trash, burnt out streetlights and potholes. On Tuesday, Mayor Martin J. Walsh launched an umbrella 311 system to better effectively receive and respond to citizen requests.
Mayor Walsh announced the new system as "a way to promote more civic engagement" and to "engage the public more."
