IFMA Boston celebrates 25 years of giving to The SPARK Center

Boston, MA In 1994 the IFMA Boston leadership was introduced to an amazing physician and founder of a small program called The CAP House. CAP stood for Children’s AIDS Project. This program was fulfilling the need in the city to care for its most vulnerable children–those being born with AIDS. The leadership was so overwhelmed by the compassion of this program they set forth to pledge the profits from their annual holiday event to the program. This has been a legacy that has passed along without interruption for all these years. The CAP House was then rebranded The SPARK Center—Supporting Parents and Resilient Kids and has continued to reinvent itself to align with the needs of Boston’s vulnerable children. Due to advances in medical technology, children are no longer being born with AIDS, but there are still many reasons children have failure to thrive and SPARK is there for them. 

IFMA Boston celebrated the 25^th anniversary of this partnership at the Innovation & Design Building on November 19^th with nearly 200 in attendance to toast the organization, gather as a community and raise funds for such an amazing program.
