Tenacity is a Boston-based youth development program that teaches tennis, literacy and life skills to Boston kids. In the summer months, you’ll find Tenacity fitness and reading programs on public tennis courts across the city of Boston, serving over 4,000 kids. Throughout the school year, Tenacity partners with a number of Boston Public Middle Schools to provide more focused, year-round programs.
Bridge Street has been helping Tenacity with their video programs and presentations off and on for about 20 years. In the past few years, Bridge Street has teamed up with longtime colleague Donna DeAngelis to put together their annual Fundraising Gala Program featuring a combination of video presentations interspersed with speeches from parents, kids, and tenacity staffers.
This video is a few years old, but offers a good overview of the Tenacity program.
