The idea
Refurbish the Josiah Quincy Elementary School/Community Center's gymnasium (floor, wall panels, bleachers, fans/ventilation, gym divider & score board) so that the children and community members will have access to a functional recreational facility
Who it helps and why
Chinatown is the densest neighborhood in the City of Boston, and lack open space, parks and recreational facilities that are accessible and free to the public. The JQES/BCYF Quincy Community Center's gymnasium is the only facility in the neighborhood that's accessible and free to the public, and serves as a critical component for the overall health and well-being of the community.
