826 Boston is a nonprofit that helps Boston-area students build writing, reading, and communication skills through free after-school tutoring, in-school workshops, and hands-on publishing projects for ages roughly 6–18. Programs are staffed by teachers, writers, and trained volunteers who provide one-on-one and small-group support, creative writing labs, and field-trip experiences designed to boost literacy, confidence, and expression. The organization partners with schools and community groups, produces student-published books and public events, and sustains its work through donations, fundraising, and a creative retail storefront. Its mission is to empower young people through the power of storytelling and strong writing.
