The following is an excerpt from our partner’s press release.
Since 1977, the Yawkey Foundation has changed lives for the better, thanks to a philanthropic legacy of Tom and Jean Yawkey and their commitment to supporting vulnerable individuals and families. Over the last ten years, The Boston Home has been a fortunate recipient of this generosity, which has helped to position The Boston Home as a 21st century leader in caring for adults with neurological disorders. Maureen H. Bleday, Chief Executive Officer of the Yawkey Foundation, explained, “Countless lives have been enriched thanks to the expert, compassionate care that The Boston Home provides, primarily to people with multiple sclerosis. The dedicated staff, who are so committed to enriching the quality of life for residents and providing support for residents’ families, is a key reason that the Yawkey Foundation Trustees are honored to have supported The Boston Home’s mission for more than a decade.”
