Good Morning, Freedom House Family ☀️🫶🏾
“Lift as you rise.” -UK
There’s something powerful about knowing your growth doesn’t have to happen alone. The people around us are learning, growing, figuring it out, and becoming too and sometimes all it takes is a little encouragement, a “you got this,” or somebody reminding you of the greatness you forgot you had.
Keep cheering for each other, keep making room for each other, and don’t be afraid to be somebody else’s reminder that they CAN do it. We’re not just becoming better by ourselves; we’re becoming better together.

“Believe in yourself.” — Shai Gilgeous-Alexander
And honestly… that plank challenge was more than just seeing who could hold a plank the longest. 😂💪🏾
Sometimes the biggest challenge is simply deciding to try. At the house, we challenge each other to step outside of our comfort zones, push past the “I cant” moments, and see beyond what we think is possible.
A new week is here, family! That means new opportunities to learn, grow, try something different, encourage somebody else, and discover a little more of who you are becoming. You may not have everything figured out yet and that’s okay. Keep showing up, keep pushing, and keep surprising yourself.
Happy Monday! You got this, family! Let’s start this week strong! 💪🏾

Happy Friday Freedom House Family 🫶🏾
You may not have won every challenge this week, but you showed up, tried something new, worked through the chaos, and somehow made it to Friday. THAT is a win!
Because let’s be honest… this week had assignments, challenges, tired moments, ‘I’ll do it tomorrow’ moments, and you pushed through. Just like Field Day, sometimes you just gotta jump in, try something new, work together, cheer somebody on, and have a good time; even when things don’t go exactly how you planned.
So take a second to give yourself some credit. You completed the week. You made it through the challenges. You kept going when you were tired. And now? Have an amazing weekend.
Finish strong, laugh a little louder, take time to reflect and remember: you completed another week…
Happy Friday!

“Empowering each other is how we build a stronger community.”
There is power in knowing that your voice, your ideas, and your experiences matter.
Keep encouraging each other. Keep listening to each other. Keep bringing your ideas to the table. Sometimes the biggest change starts with a group of people simply believing, We can build something better together.
Happy Thursday, Freedom House Family! Let’s keep showing up, lifting each other up, and making an impact. ❤️

Wayback Wednesday: September 2017.🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
These photos take us back to the celebration of Freedom House’s newly renovated home. I think about everyone who helped bring that day to life, and about the young people who have walked through these doors since.
It was a joy to celebrate alongside former Mayor Marty Walsh, former Freedom House CEO Katrina Shaw, former District 7 City Councilor Tito Jackson, State Representative Chynah Tyler, and Ms. Jumaada Smith, Goldenaires of the Freedom House Goldenaires.
In 2026, nine years after that reopening and 77 years after Otto and Muriel Snowden founded Freedom House, we are still here. Still opening doors for young people. Still grateful to the neighbors, partners, staff, and supporters who make this work possible.
What a legacy to carry forward. ❤️
Happy Wednesday Freedom House Family 🫶🏾
We know it’s Wednesday, we’re right in the middle of the week, keep pushing through. Here’s your reminder to start it up and keep going.🔥
“Anything’s possible, you gotta dream like you never seen obstacles.” — J. Cole
Sometimes you just need that little reminder to keep moving, even when the week feels long. Keep showing up, keep pushing, and remember that one slow day doesn’t mean you’re not making progress.
A big THANK YOU to our staff, Rasheed and Destiny, and our scholar Kiara, along with the amazing Beats Rhymes & Life team, Big Mike and Jalen! We appreciate you all for bringing the energy and helping create these moments.
Now here are some tunes to get the day started; let’s make this Wednesday a good one!

Help us welcome Luis, as a Massachusetts Promise Fellow. While this may be a new role for Luis, he is definitely not new to Freedom House. We’ve had the privilege of watching him grow from a scholar, to a Junior Coach in Training, to a Junior Coach, and now into his next chapter as a coach at Snowden and a coach supporting PUSH Leadership Institute.
“Growth is about being willing to learn, keep showing up, and embrace every new opportunity along the way.” - CP3
Luis has done just that, and we couldn’t be more proud of the person, leader, and coach he continues to become.
Luis, we’re excited to see what this year brings. Keep learning, keep leading, keep growing, and remember that every chapter is preparing you for the next one. We already know you’re going to make this an amazing year.
Welcome back, Luis! We’re proud to have you as part of the Freedom House Family.
