Today’s FCA
Fenway Civic is a board-driven,
all-volunteer, member-supported organization whose goal is to promote and
sustain a vital, livable neighborhood. Its volunteers write periodic newsletters, organize a variety
of special events for members, and are fully informed participants in all
public processes, such as participating in the Muddy
River Restoration Project Maintenance and Management Committee. Unlike many
community organizations, FCA does not receive public funds and has no
financial stake in the decisions being made, enabling it to act wholly in
the best interest of the neighborhood.
There are no corporate sponsors, no slick brochures, no hired
staff, and no office. But
what FCA does have is the ear of our public officials and the respect of
the residents, institutions, and businesses, who depend on FCA leaders for their expertise, experience and
honest work on behalf of a better Fenway.
That legacy continues in today’s Fenway
Civic Association. FCA –
now active in both the East and the West -- has become respected for its
dedication, resourcefulness and hard work to improve the Fenway
Neighborhood through its programs to:
ü
Protect the environment
ü
Highlight our cultural riches
ü
Guide development
ü
Advise new businesses
ü
Improve public
transportation
ü
Cultivate open space
ü
Inform interested
citizens
