The Boston Globe's impact on our community goes beyond the pages of the news, information and opinion read in the newspaper.  From direct charitable contributions to scholarships for higher education, to music, sports and the arts.  The Globe reaches thousands of people in Greater Boston and New England through a wide range of community and public service programs.

The Globe Santa Fund collects donations from readers and advertisers to purchase holiday gifts for underprivileged children.

For over 30 years, The Boston Globe Newspaper in Education (NIE) program has been providing newspapers and curriculum to schools to help educate young minds.

Established in 1982, the Boston Globe Foundation has distributed more than $32 million to local nonprofit agencies to support a wide range of services.
