Support and Celebrate Community Acupuncture with BAP’s Spring Fundraiser for 2025

Here at Boston Acupuncture Project (BAP), we believe healing is powerful – not just for individuals, but for entire communities. Through community acupuncture, we help people find relief from pain, stress, and isolation.

Last year, BAP’s first ever Spring Fundraiser successfully raised $7,500 thanks to 111 people! These donors made it possible for BAP to continue running our clinic with an affordable $30-$60 sliding scale.

Donations also make it possible to serve our communities with

  • free treatments at public events like Hyde Park’s Juneteenth Joy celebration
  • affordable mobile clinic services in partnership with organizations like The Teachers’ Lounge
  • fundraising nights for non-profits like Afrimerican Culture Initiative.

Now in our 7th year open, acupuncturists at BAP have treated almost 2,000 individuals! We know our clinical work makes a difference. In a recent poll, 96% of returning patients said that treatment at BAP gave them relief from pain, and 95% said the same for stress.

Our goal this year is to raise $10,000 by May 31. Click here to learn more about our campaign, and share with friends.
