For nearly 30 years, John M. Corcoran & Corcoran
Management Company have been a driving force in working to end homelessness and
to provide stable and affordable housing for those who are less fortunate. CMC
is proud to be a leading partner and sponsor of Caritas Communities, a
non-profit organization that owns and manages 29 residential properties and
homes throughout the Greater Boston area that offer a place for those
struggling with homelessness to be able to call home. On Thursday November 13th,
Caritas held its annual end of the year fundraiser dinner and gala at the
Sheraton Boston. As is the case with many non-profits today, Caritas faces
challenges when it comes to fundraising and meeting the growing demand of those
in need of emergency assistance. Last night’s dinner, like years past, was a
tremendous success in raising money to provide shelter, food, educational
programs, clothing, and much more for those in need.
Each year, at least two individuals whose lives have been
changed for the better by Caritas deliver a speech in front of 800+ people, not
an easy task for even the most confident of public speakers. The stories they
tell of tragedy, abuse, neglect, and resiliency within their own journey shows
the true meaning and importance of Caritas and the work they do.
Corcoran communities throughout the Boston area are
currently accepting a number of items to be donated to the residents of Caritas
Communities. Items that are in the highest of demand this winter season include
winter clothing, socks, undershirts, soap, shampoo, deodorant, toothpaste,
mouthwash, and face and hand towels. We would like to thank all who donate and
continue to improve the quality of life for those who call Caritas home!
