The NonProfit Center

The NonProfit Center is located at 89 South Street, Boston, MA 02111

Convene, Connect, Network, and Learn Together

Owned and operated by TSNE, the NonProfit Center is home to more than 50 nonprofits, and welcomes visitors from hundreds of organizations every year. The building is a hub of activity where people come to convene, connect, network, and learn together.

Members of the NonProfit Center in Boston believe that more can be achieved when individuals and organizations work together to benefit themselves, their communities, and beyond. The NonProfit Center fosters a physical and cultural environment that supports the needs of nonprofits with this mission

The First of Its Kind

The NonProfit Center is the first mission-based, multi-tenant center for nonprofits in Massachusetts. Its office and meeting facilities are available for rental at below-market rates to many nonprofits who would otherwise not be able to afford space in Boston.

Located at 89 South Street in Boston’s Leather District, the building is an architecturally distinctive property and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is located just one block from the South Station transportation center, an easy walk to the Massachusetts State House and Boston City Hall, and to the many social and cultural activities nearby.

 

Our Space

During the renovation of the Nonprofit Center in 2004, TSNE committed to preserving the architectural details that embody the building’s past and developed a vision to restore the building for the future using environmentally preferred materials and design. The building recycles or composts 75% of its waste, and uses high-efficiency light and HVAC systems. The NonProfit Center has earned LEED certification from the U.S. Green Building Council and is ENERGY STAR®-certified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Our four meeting rooms include a newly renovated, state-of-the-art conference center that can accommodate large events or small meeting groups.
