Boston, MA Callahan Construction Managers (Callahan) volunteered at Rosie’s Place in Boston on Thursday, March 5th. 2020 marks the 6th consecutive year that Callahan has partnered with the women’s shelter.
Founded in 1974, Rosie’s Place was the first women’s shelter in the United States. The organization provides meals, shelter and wide-ranging support services. Rosie’s Place aims to maintain the dignity of women in the Boston area by providing a safe, nurturing environment to help them find security and seek opportunity in their lives.
During Callahan’s volunteer day, 12 employees prepared and served meals to 131 women and children. This visit will be the first of four visits scheduled for the year.
“As a family-owned business, we take pride in supporting families in need, particularly in the local communities where we work and live,” said Pat Callahan, president of Callahan. “Rosie’s Place does an incredible job of uplifting women and children which is why we collaborate with the organization year after year.”
Rosie’s Place is one of the many organizations where Callahan volunteers both time and resources as part of their Constructing Communities program. Constructing Communities was designed to support the local communities where Callahan works, offering outreach through volunteerism, the hiring of local subcontractors and the purchase of local goods.
