Help Save the Harbor / Save the Bay
Share a Great Memory of Boston Harbor with a Deserving Child this Summer!

For many of us, spending the day on Boston Harbor on a boat, a dock, the beach or in the Boston Harbor Islands National Park is no big deal. But for the thousands of youth and teens who take part in Save the Harbor / Save the Bay's free Boston Harbor youth environmental recreation programs, learning to fish, catch a crab or a lobster, or explore the Boston Harbor Islands is a very big deel indeed.

Each summer Save the Harbor / Save the Bay offers a suite of free, first rate youth environmental education and recreation programs that share Boston Harbor with underserved kids and teens from 120 youth and community groups from all of Boston's neighborhoods and from the beachfront communities from Nahant to Nantasket, including Lynn, Nahant, Revere, Winthrop, East Boston, South Boston, Dorchester, Quincy and Hull.

Our programs run daily during the summer from the Bank of America Pavilion to Georges Island and Spectacle Island, and on the docks of the Boston Harbor region's youth sailing centers, including the Courageous Sailing Center in Charlestown, Piers Park Sailing Center in East Boston, The Harry McDonough Sailing Center in South Boston, Black's Creek in Quincy, and at Camp Harbor View, the Boston Children's Museum on the Fort Point Channel, and at Community Boating on the Charles River.

Since 2003, these free, first-rate Boston Harbor youth education and recreation programs have connected more than 60,000 youth and teens to Boston Harbor and the Boston Harbor Islands National Park.

Save the Harbor / Save the Bay relies on your generosity to make these free
Boston Harbor youth environmental education and recreation programs possible.

Your contribution of $25, $50, $100, $250, $500 - or whatever you can afford - will help provide
us with the resources we need to continue to “Share the Harbor” with thousands of deserving
young people again this summer.
