Helpful Resources:

Since the inception of the fund, the team has made an effort to periodically raise additional resources so that Boston Prep may respond to crises in a manner that is both efficient and impactful. These funds are for emergency situations only and are approved on a case by case basis. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/15Kh6STEXG_EvjXIn8GahOd6QrEGju0aDwDNFsY1m3jk/edit
