About Project Ellie
Project Ellie is a registered 501(c)(3) Massachusetts nonprofit corporation. We bring a little brightness to folks experiencing homelessness by distributing two of the items we know that they appreciate the most: gift cards and socks.
We partner with individuals, businesses, and schools to organize gift card or sock drives. We then distribute these items on the streets, or deliver them directly to individuals at Boston’s homeless shelters- and beyond.
Get Involved
Our Mission is to provide opportunities for individuals and groups to perform kind deeds and participate in charitable acts to benefit those who are less fortunate.
We believe the ripple effect of kindness is real!
Our Team
Project Ellie is always growing, and we are fortunate to have a Board of dedicated professionals who help guide our mission and expand our reach in Boston and beyond.

“I don't want to live in the kind of world where we don't look out for each other. Not just the people that are close to us, but anybody who needs a helping hand. I can’t change the way anybody else thinks, or what they choose to do, but I can do my bit.”
- Charles de Lint
