Led by CSF advocates across the Institute, @mit departments collected 1,600 pounds of nutritious food to donate to the @mfnhcambridge food pantry.

"At Margaret Fuller Neighborhood House, Inc., we believe in the power of community and the difference we can make when we come together. Your donation is not just an act of kindness; it is a testament to your commitment to our shared vision of a better, more equitable society. For this, we are profoundly thankful." ❤️

The Community Service Fund was proud to support a wide range of impactful initiatives that will directly benefit our surrounding communities. We awarded grants to 11 MIT-led projects, with funding levels ranging from $500 to more than $5,000 based on project scope and potential impact.

In addition, we provided financial support to 15 local nonprofit organizations with strong ties to MIT, many of which host our students and staff as volunteers and partners in service. We also funded stipends of $7,500 each for six social impact interns through the PKG Service Center, enabling them to dedicate their time and talents to meaningful community-focused work.

In total, $113,164 was awarded this year. Every application underwent a rigorous review by a Board composed of faculty, staff, and student members from across the Institute. Funding decisions were guided by the strength and thoughtfulness of each proposal and its anticipated impact on our surrounding communities.

Applications will open again in March and October. Local nonprofits can apply for funding in the spring cycle.

On Giving Tuesday, consider a gift to an organization with a local commitment to building a better world. 💞

Contributions are essential to the CSF and the communities we serve. Whether you’re looking to give once, or become a CSF sustainer through a recurring payroll donation, 100% of your gift will go straight to our grant recipients—no administrative or credit card fees are deducted. Whether you’re giving $10 or $100, twice a month or twice a year, you can feel confident that every cent is going where it will do the most good.
