Local Events

Our Fenway Hotel is proud to partner with local organizations to help make a difference in the community. We recently became a sponsor with One Summit, which helps to build confidence and courage in children who are battling cancer. We are also working closely with the Wheelock Dance Marathon to help benefit the Boston Children’s Hospital. This fundraiser will help raise money for an important medical facility that is in our own neighborhood and we are honored to lend our support.
