The thrust is to support programs and organizations that enhance cognitive and social skills for educational success. ENVIRONMENT More than 75 properties in Southeastern Massachusetts have benefitted from our efforts. The approach has been to connect local conservation groups to each other in an effort to scale-up effectiveness. Director of the Plymouth chapter of the Nature Conservancy, Robb Johnson, said that this approach has “Freed up the attention of all the groups to focus on results - not worrying about who got the credit.” PROGRAMS AND IMPACT EDUCATION BOYS & GIRLS CLUBS For over a decade, Sheehan Family Companies have supported local Boys & Girls Clubs on the South Shore of Massachusetts, including donating funds for the construction of new facilities in Plymouth, MA and Marshfield, MA. RAISING A READER Through family participation, the Raising a Reader program teaches early childhood reading as a way to put children on a path to enjoyable reading throughout their school careers.

JONES RIVER WATERSHED ALLIANCE Sheehan Family Companies have supported the Alliance, a member-funded, non-profit organization, for over ten years. Through advocacy, land protection, habitat restoration and improvements to the watershed infrastructure, The Jones River Watershed Association seeks to protect and improve the Jones River watershed in Kingston, Massachusetts. QUOTES Henry Woolsey, Director of the Mass Natural Heritage Program: "The Sheehan’s interest in science-based land protections and their investment in those groups has paid remarkable dividends to nature conservation and to future generations." Karen Grey, Executive Director of the Wildlands Trust of Southeastern Massachusetts: "The entire region would look very different if the Sheehans hadn’t stepped forward. It would be more suburbanized, there would be fewer places for rural pursuits […] and less of each town’s special character." Stephen Smith, Executive Director of the Southeastern Regional Planning and Economic Development District (SRPEDD): "The conservation groups funded by Sheehan Family Companies did an amazing job of raising awareness among residents and community officials in the region. They were the Paul Reveres, alerting us to the threat posed to our natural resources and the character of our communities." Pine Dubois, Executive Director of the Jones River Watershed Association: "Their grants have been essential to our efforts to improve water quality and quantity and to creating a corridor of protected, publicly accessible land along the river. None of that would have happened without the Sheehan’s regular generosity and on-going engagement."
