Building connections across communities is vital to ending homelessness. Representatives from @OrangeCoFL visited Pine Street to learn about operations & how our programs like shelter, housing services & more make a lasting impact on the lives of people experiencing homelessness.
Pine Street is proud to announce the appointment of @CovingtonLLP's Megan Gates as the new chair of its board of directors. A long-time donor & volunteer, Megan helps advance solutions to homelessness as the organization continues to increase its housing. ow.ly/BZAh50ZHWPX
Her dedication and leadership will help ensure that more individuals experiencing homelessness have access to housing, stability and opportunity. Join us in congratulating her on this milestone. Thank you to @jonchesto and @BostonGlobe for recognizing this innovative leader.
Volunteering in Pine Street's kitchen is more than chopping produce; it's about providing care to people who need it most. @SantanderBankUS joined us for kitchen prep and helped support kitchen staff as they cooked meals for shelter guests. Thank you for your time and energy!
Lincoln, a former Pine Street housekeeping trainee, spoke to the impact of our job training program. Lincoln connected with Pine Street through @MassAbility_MA Career Services. Now, he hopes to give back to the community that helped him find #success. ow.ly/M75Q50Zz5h8
Recently, Pine Street Inn staff members received a 2026 National Night Out Community Partner Award from Mayor Michelle Wu and @bostonpolice Commissioner Michael Cox on behalf of the Egleston Square Coalition.
The Coalition brings together #communitypartners, residents, businesses and public safety officials to promote a safe and welcoming neighborhood for everyone. With residences across Greater Boston, Pine Street is proud to partner with our local communities. #NationalNightOut2026
Recently, Pine Street Inn welcomed back local award-winning artist Jo Ann Rothschild, who led a painting class for shelter guests at Yawkey House. Events like this help foster mindfulness, creativity and connection. Thank you for sharing your time and expertise with guests!
What a great way to keep cool in the summer! Pine Street staff scooped & served ice cream sundaes for shelter guests at the Men's Inn. Staff work to foster a sense of community in shelter, and an ice cream social is an opportunity for guests to relax & connect out of the heat.
Pine Street is a place of hope & change for people experiencing homelessness. Staff work to connect people with housing services, job training & more to get them back on their feet. Last year, Pine Street helped more than 600 people move out of homelessness. #EndingHomelessness
Since 2017, @Boston_BullPen has partnered with Pine Street Inn to support shelter guests, outreach clients and our job training program. Tonight, three of their founders served dinner to guests at the Men's Inn. Thank you for your positive energy and your valued partnership!
Darrell moved in with his mother to become her full-time caregiver. When she needed more care, Darrell made the difficult choice to sell the family home to pay for medical expenses, becoming homeless. At the Men’s Inn shelter, Darrell has found support. ow.ly/yh5L50ZwlAY
Community is in bloom! Volunteers from @BreckCap visited one of our residences to guide tenants through a bouquet-making workshop. For tenants who have lived without a place of their own, displaying flowers helps establish a sense of pride and ownership over their new homes.
This summer has been one to celebrate! We're taking a look back on this year's job training program graduation and extending our thanks to all the Pine Street @icaterboston and housekeeping trainees, staff and community partners who attended.
Your support helps us provide job training services that provide stability and opportunity to move individuals out of homelessness. Thank you to presenting sponsor @natixis. Watch a recap of the day: ow.ly/LMc050Zveh7 #Graduation #JobTraining #Recap
This early 80s picture shows Pine Street staff with donated goods from the old outreach van. Today, volunteers and partners donate items like socks, snacks and personal care items to improve the lives of Pine Street’s shelter guests, tenants and those living on the streets. #TBT
Recently, Chef Andrew Pereira of @SodexoGroup joined @icaterboston trainees as part of the Visiting Chef Series, with his take on a Waldorf salad. During the class, trainees learned how to enhance simple ingredients through bringing, pickling and sauce making.
As a shelter guest at Pine Street, Michael shares how being a member of the Consumer Advisory Board (CAB) has empowered him to become a leader who can guide other guests through the shelter experience. "People come up to me, I help them out and they're happy," says Michael.
We're growing community! Enjoying the outdoors is one of the best parts about summertime, especially when you can share it with others. At one of Pine Street’s residences in Jamaica Plain, this community garden is making an impact on tenants & their neighborhood. #CommunityGarden
