Heading Home to Dinner is a dine by design event hosted by the Boston Design Community to raise funds for Heading Home to provide housing and aid to homeless families.
Our goal is to foster a bridge between the Boston Design Community and our neighbors in need. It is our mission to raise awareness and help alleviate homelessness in the Boston community. Heading Home provides a supported pathway to self-sufficiency that begins with a home, together with critical services such as life skills, financial literacy, and job training.
Thank you so much to those who attended our kick-off meeting on May 16th at the Boston Design Center. We were blown away by all the enthusiastic, designer energy in the room. Thank you also to all who have reached out to us to help out, volunteer, donate and sponsor the event, who were unable to attend. Our main goal is to build community within our Boston designer world, and to support our less fortunate neighbors. With you, we are well on the way to putting together an amazing event, and a generous contribution to support Heading Home!!
