About This Cause

One of Boston’s original historic settlement houses, the South Boston Neighborhood House was founded in 1901 with a mission ‘to support family and neighborhood life in South Boston’. Affectionately known as “The Ollie” after our founder, Olivia James, the South Boston Neighborhood House is known for the deep ties and connections among participants and families that have endured for generations. The South Boston Neighborhood House is the oldest continually operating human service agency in the community and its only independent multi-service provider. Today, the Neighborhood House impacts the lives of 2,000 individuals each year from infants to nonagenarians. Our five program and service areas, Early Education & Care, School Age Programs, Education & Career Development, the Senior “Jet Set” Program and Family Engagement, work together to strengthen the fabric of family and community life through education and opportunity. Volunteers are an integral part of life at “the Ollie.” Each year hundreds of amazing individuals and groups donate their time and talent for tutoring and mentoring youth, fundraising events, facility improvements, professional workshops, our holiday gift drive and family engagement events.
