Fleet Homes Office Grand Opening &
Welcome Home Blanket Drive!
We had such a great time at the grand opening of our office at 1121 Washington Street above Trader Joe's in West Newton. We enjoyed seeing some old friends and clients, showing off our new space and even got a visit from Santa! A BIG thank you to everyone who supported our blanket & sheets drive for one of our local charities, Welcome Home!
Welcome Home is a Newton based home goods pantry that provides families experiencing hardship with the basic household items they need to live with dignity.
Charities Supported by Fleet Homes Real Estate
Newton Food Pantry
Although Newton is an affluent community, there are still many who struggle to put food on their table — and the Covid pandemic has created additional challenges for many.
The Newton Food Pantry serves approximately 750 residents every month, and that number rises every year. More than one-third are children. Many are elderly.
Learn more about the Newton Food Pantry and how you can help the struggling members of our community.
Project Smile
Founded in 2003, Project Smile is a federally tax-exempt non-profit organization dedicated to helping people in need through two programs: Smiles for Children and Suits & Smiles.
Smiles for Children donates stuffed animals, coloring books/crayons and children’s books for social workers, police officers, fire fighters and paramedics to give to children. Thousands of children face traumatic events annually. Approximately 7,000 enter foster care each year in Massachusetts and an additional 3,000 children reside in a Massachusetts homeless shelter. Stuffed animals, coloring books, and reading books can be of comfort to a distressed child.
Suits & Smiles provides job interview & work attire for men in need. Many of the men who come to Suits & Smiles are working hard to overcome tremendous personal obstacles. Many are recovering from addiction. Finding employment is an important step on their journey to recovery.
