Keeping Melrosians Informed Since 2024

Give Back to Our Community

Melrose Kind

  • June is here which means another way of giving is coming your way. Hope for Boston's Homeless is in need of ADULT flip flops which are important to the homeless as they are easy to get on and off and most importantly many need to use them in public showers. They are easy to replace if stolen and fit nicely in their bags. Let’s try to help those most vulnerable.
  • Please consider donating via one of our porches or our Amazon wish list.
  • Kindness Porches:
  • 89 Walton Park
  • 160 West Wyoming
  • 11 Briggs Street
  • 647 Main Street (Follow Your Art)
  • 249 Grove Street

The Food Drive

  • IMMEDIATE NEED: If you've been thinking about cooking for The Food Drive's Community Freezer, now is a great time! Our Incoming Freezer is empty, and we've distributed 280 meals over the past three Sundays. Help us fill the freezer with meals for our neighbors!
