philanthropy in progress

Today, our philanthropic contributions range from education to healthcare to cultural causes that are near and dear to us. Polaris Capital works closely with distinctly different organizations — but all have the same ultimate goal: to work with families and children in need. We would like to call attention to them and hope others may join in supporting these important causes. To briefly highlight the charitable giving endeavors undertaken by Polaris Capital and our professional team:

100 Women Who Care Boston seeks to strengthen the Boston community through the power of collective giving. The 100 Women Who Care Boston chapter is a members-only circle of philanthropic women dedicated to amplifying the awareness and support of deserving non-profits in the local area. Since their inaugural event in May 2017, 100 Women Who Care Boston has awarded over $130,000 to 21 local non-profits.

Since Angel Flight Northeast’s first flight in 1996, mission coordinators have scheduled more than 45,000 flights and more than 1,000 volunteer pilots have flown nearly 10 million miles providing more than 60,000 patients and their families with free air transportation to medical care. Angel Flight schedules approximately 100 flights weekly for these courageous patients.

The Boy Scouts of America provides the nation’s foremost youth program of character development and values-based leadership training, which helps young people be “Prepared. For Life.®” The Scouting organization is composed of more than 1 million youth members between the ages of 5 and 21 and approximately 650,000 volunteers in local councils throughout the United States and its territories.

For 40 years, Greater Lawrence Family Health Center has provided health care to the people of the Merrimack Valley, including full service comprehensive pharmacy services. The health center also provides addiction services, as well as health care to the homeless at 13 homeless shelters and through its two Mobile Health Units.
