This spring, Haymarket People’s Fund continues to remind us that the fight for justice is not a passing phase, but a movement rooted in history, community, and vision. In the latest newsletter, Executive Director Karla Nicholson reflects on the importance of planning, strategy, and intergenerational collaboration to sustain progress. “We stand on the shoulders of greatness,” she writes, urging us to learn from past struggles while embracing the ideas of the next generation. Hope, persistence, and community remain at the heart of Haymarket’s journey.
A highlight of the season is the celebration of Haymarket’s 50th Anniversary. In honor of this milestone, the organization awarded sixty-four $10,000 grants to long-standing grantees across New England who are committed to anti-racism organizing. These one-time awards, made possible through collective decision-making by activists, not only uplift grassroots leaders but also recognize the joy and resilience found in their daily work. From creating healing spaces to building unexpected solidarity, grantee voices echo a shared commitment to justice and liberation.
The newsletter also looks ahead with exciting community events. The Laughter Heals Fundraiser returns on June 20, promising an evening of comedy and connection while raising vital funds for grassroots organizing. Later in the month, Haymarket will join over a dozen partner organizations for the Celebration of Grassroots Organizing, a collaborative fundraiser and community picnic in Boston. The momentum continues into the fall with the Jamaica Plain Open Studios, offering creative connections between artists and neighbors.
Fifty years on, Haymarket’s mission is as urgent as ever: to support grassroots organizations that address the root causes of injustice. This spring’s newsletter is both a celebration of progress and a call to action. It reminds us that building a just and equitable world requires persistence, solidarity, and joy—and that every voice, every gift, and every effort matters in moving forward together.

I really enjoyed reading the updates in this spring newsletter; it’s so heartening to see the community coming together for such great causes. Last spring, I was so busy volunteering for local events that I actually had to pay someone to do my online class just to keep up with my schedule. It’s a relief to find a balance so I can stay involved with wonderful organizations like this one!
I read the Spring 2025 Haymarket newsletter and liked how it highlighted long-term community support, grant stories, and upcoming events that keep people connected. During a busy semester, I remember feeling stretched thin while reading similar updates and trying to study at night, so I relied on Help with Computer Course I used to stay on track. It reminded me that strong communities and steady support both make hard work feel possible.
Escape Road 2 really captures the feeling of being in a fast, endless challenge.
