A Night to Remember: Annual Meeting & Relaunch Celebration

On Wednesday, June 18, community members, partners, and friends gathered at the Acton-Boxborough Resource Center for an evening of connection, reflection, and celebration.

Together, we looked back on a year of meaningful impact — from welcoming more than a thousand neighbors through our doors to launching new programs and deepening our partnerships — and looked ahead to what’s next.

One of the most exciting moments of the night was the announcement of our new name:

Acton-Boxborough Community Compass.

This name reflects who we are today: a local organization rooted in community, helping neighbors navigate challenges, find support, and build a stronger Acton and Boxborough together.

Attendees heard moving stories from staff, volunteers, and board members, previewed our strategic direction, and toasted to this next chapter with sparkling cider.

We're so grateful to everyone who joined us and made the evening so special.
