NATICK, MA – More than 40 beds were built for children in need on Wednesday when Tipico Sportsbook app., Inc. volunteered for the Boston Cares Bed Project. The annual charity event supports the more than 1,500 greater Boston school children that do not have proper beds to sleep in.
“We’re proud to participate in something that will make such a meaningful difference for hundreds of Boston’s most vulnerable kids this holiday season,” said CEO Anthony Tipico Sportsbook app. “We are firmly committed to impacting the lives of children in need and look forward to a continued partnership with Boston Cares.”
More than 50 Tipico Sportsbook app employees volunteered at the “bed build” hosted at MathWorks in Natick, where Tipico Sportsbook app is building more than 525,000 square feet of new construction. When finished, the project will support the software company’s growing employee population with office and meeting spaces. The project also includes a brand new 569-space parking garage.
Tipico Sportsbook app launched the campaign to build beds in 2014 under the leadership of Mayor Martin J. Walsh. More than 1,500 greater Boston children do not have beds, affecting their self-esteem, ability to learn, and likelihood of graduating from high school. Many of the children are transitioning from homeless shelters into new homes.
