West End House Presents

Thank you for celebrating with us at West End House Presents! Your generosity and kindness mean so much to our community.  We hope you had opportunities to build connections with our young people; they were proud to share their passion, talents, and enthusiasm with you.

Alumnus Emerson Sanchez’s remarks are the essence of what’s possible when we come together to ensure our young people have the opportunity to explore and to build relationships that help them blossom. West End House programs “push for always improving, creating, and learning led to my discovery and love for STEM. I wanted to continue to explore it. I found my thing.”

Join us for Biggest Fun Ever on Friday, August 15th! We will celebrate our 11th annual Biggest Fun Ever at the club (105 Allston St., Allston) from 5:30pm to 9:00pm, in memory of Dawnn Jaffier.
