Community Programs

Boston By Foot is proud to work with many community organizations to connect with local residents, present our programming and further our mission. We are eager to explore building relationships, collaborations, and partnerships with groups and communities, particularly those that are underrepresented in our membership, volunteer roster, content, or current outreach. If you represent a community organization and would like to explore partnership opportunities, please contact our office.

Wisdom Walks

With special consideration for small senior groups, or groups who are looking for a more social experience, we have adapted a selection of our tours. These tours are slower paced to allow time for discussion, reflection and socializing during and after the tour. Our guides will facilitate engaging conversations about the city’s historic sites and stories, with a special focus on honoring seniors’ knowledge and lived experiences and inviting them to share their stories.

Please visit our Wisdom Walks page for more information on these tours.

Tour Pass Donations

As a non-profit organization, Boston By Foot is pleased to consider ticket donation requests for other non-profit organizations’ silent auctions, raffles or other fundraising programs. Organizations must have a 501(c)(3) designation. We are not able to donate to individuals or religious organizations. Requests are accepted year round and reviewed on a monthly basis. We regret that we cannot honor all of the many requests we receive. Please contact our office to request a donation.
