Launched by Massachusetts Governor Baker and First Lady Lauren Baker in partnership with the One8 Foundation, the Massachusetts COVID-19 Relief Fund will serve essential frontline workers and vulnerable populations across the state facing homelessness, food insecurity and loss of critical services as a result of the COVID-19 public health crisis.

Eastern Bank is proud to support this statewide Fund as an administrator of the Fund, providing a safe and reliable way for donations to be made to this Fund, and at no cost to the Fund. In addition, our Foundation has donated $100,000 to this Fund. The Foundation for Business Equity, a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization, is serving as a fiscal sponsor of the Fund.

Grants made through the Fund will be determined solely by the leadership of the Massachusetts COVID-19 Relief Fund, and not by Eastern Bank or Eastern Bank Charitable Foundation.

Supporting each other is the best way to get through this pandemic together. When we all do what we can, we help our neighbors across all communities in Massachusetts.
