Project 351 Information

Project 351 is a youth-led movement for transformative change and the only model of its kind in the nation. Annually, we unite a statewide corps of 8th grade unsung heroes -- Ambassadors -- selected to represent Massachusetts’ 351 cities and towns. United across all facets of diversity, Ambassadors commit to a transformative year of service, civic engagement, and leadership development. We are founded on the belief that every young person is remarkable and within them lie the tools, vision, and desire to build a more just, inclusive, and united global community. Since 2011, 5,229 Ambassadors have impacted more than 1.3 million of our most vulnerable neighbors through service in partnership with the Commonwealth’s leading nonprofit organizations. Together, we are building communities that are strong, united, and just.
