Paddles to Pathways
Discover how Tenacity is making a difference
and how you can be a part of it.
Tenacity’s mission is to set Boston’s under-resourced youth on a pathway to post-secondary success by nurturing their wellness, boosting their physical fitness and racquet abilities, and enhancing their literacy skills. We provide athletic activities, academic support, and mentoring to help students navigate the transition from middle school to high school and beyond—whether that means college or other post-secondary endeavors. Join us in creating a world where every young person has the chance to succeed.
Are you ready to rally to help thousands of Tenacity Students
achieve their dreams?
Join us for an afternoon of platform tennis at Paddles To Pathways! Tenacity supporters come together for an afternoon of friendly competition to raise funds for Tenacity students. Platform Tennis matches will be held at Wellesley Country Club, The Country Club, Brae Burn Country Club, & Weston Golf Club. Men and women of all playing levels welcome. Register as an individual player, doubles pair, or team.
