90 Years of Building Community Together
90 years ago, a group of Black pastors founded the Cambridge Community Center in The Coast neighborhood because the YMCA at the time was for whites-only. The pastors were committed to creating an inclusive space that responded to the growing inequalities and lack of opportunities in the community. Since January 29, 1929, and from our 137-year-old historic building, we have served generations of children, youth, and families throughout Cambridge.
Our guiding principle has never changed: we work to respond to the evolving needs of the most vulnerable residents in Cambridge with high quality programs and services that help alleviate disparities due to ethnicity and socioeconomic status. Thousands of individuals and groups use our facilities throughout the year by participating in our programs and services or by using our space for meetings and events. Our commitment to the community is most evident in the people we serve and engage with, many of whom come from families that have been involved with the Center for up to four or five generations.
