A Night of Impact, Community, and Opportunity

The 2025 Harlem Lacrosse – Boston Benefit—a night full of inspiration, community, and celebration of our incredible students.

Guests heard powerful stories from our scholar-athletes and families, witnessed the impact of our program firsthand, and helped us launch our expansion into Chelsea—bringing academic support, mentorship, and lacrosse to even more students in need.

When asked, “If you had to describe Harlem Lacrosse in one word, what would it be?”, 10th grade student panelist Wilson responded:

“Welcoming.”

“Harlem Lacrosse welcomes so many kids from different backgrounds and brings out a different side of you. At first, you think it’s just about lacrosse because it’s in the name—but it teaches you about life.”

 

WE EXPAND EDUCATIONAL ACCESS AND OPPORTUNITY, USING EVERYTHING ABOUT THE SPORT WE LOVE TO HELP THE STUDENTS WE LOVE CHASE THEIR BOLDEST DREAMS.
