All of our featured charities are nominated by WTG employees and are included in our donation matching program. Winslow Technology Group is honored by the opportunity to give back to our community.

Our focus charity for this quarter is Thompson, a human services leader transforming lives through prevention, mental health services, and foster care. As a solutions-driven organization committed to rewriting narratives for the most vulnerable in their community; Thompson achieves this by providing comprehensive, evidence-based services, and trauma-informed care, for children (ages 0-18) and their families, virtually and in-person.

Our focus charity for this quarter is The Dennis “DJ” Simmonds ’08 Memorial Scholarship Fund which was established to honor the memory of the late Dennis “DJ” Simmonds, Class of 2008. All proceeds will support scholarships for current Lasell College students.

A courageous member of the Boston Police Department, DJ was one of the officers involved in the Watertown shootout after the 2013 Boston Marathon, where he was injured. He passed away a year later.

DJ was a highly decorated police officer and was awarded a Top Cop award in Washington, DC, the Schroeder Brothers Memorial Medal as well as many commendations for his work with gang activity.

“It’s about keeping his memory alive,” DJ’s sister Nicole Simmonds said. In his memory, this fund can continue his vision and commitment to the Boston community.

Financial donations to help people affected by Hurricanes Milton and Helene enable the Red Cross to prepare for, respond to and help people recover from these disasters.
