The Shamrock foundation also partners with community based organizations that provide healthcare, shelter and vital services for children in need.
This year our community partners are Children's Hospital Boston, Horizons for Homeless Children and the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (MSPCC).
