Photo credit: YBBoston On the Fort Hill Day of Service, uBuild, a program dedicated to partnering employees of socially conscious companies with its parent organization, YouthBuild Boston, to complete service projects in the community, generated 82 volunteers to complete 574 hours of direct service at two nonprofits in the Boston area: Paige Academy, and the Cooper Community Center.
Staff and students from YouthBuild Boston, as well as volunteers from Covidien, and the Red Sox -- including manager John Farrell, infielder Brandon Snyder, and catcher Ryan Lavarnway -- spent time landscaping, building picnic tables and making other improvements to the outside of both facilities.
