Merrimack Valley Project

Earlier this month, over 100+ Lowell residents, leaders, and families came together for MVP’s Lowell Housing Community Assembly!🔥

Folks showed up ready to share their stories, face the housing crisis head-on, and build a new path forward for our city. In a divided moment, our community chose to come together to build people-power.

If you want to get involved, learn more about our campaigns, or check out upcoming trainings, visit merrimackvalleyproject.org.

As part of SIF’s (tag) 2026 Accelerator Cohort, MVP will take the stage at SIF’s upcoming Showcase to share our mission, vision, and the impact we’re building.

This year’s theme, Speak Up and Speak Out for Nonprofits, is all about showing up, using our voices, and making space for the stories and solutions that matter most. This dynamic event brings together 300+ leaders from the philanthropic, business, and local community spaces—all committed to supporting bold ideas through investment, partnership, and leadership/volunteerism.

We’d love to see you there! ✨

What an incredible Immigrants Day at the State House!!

For our 30th annual event, we had more than 1,000 folks in the room! It was beyond packed and the energy was amazing ❤️

Thank you so much to EVERYONE who was apart of this day! We send immense gratitude to our volunteers, MIRA Staff & supporters, our COMMUNITY MEMBERS, Governor Maura Healey and our state leaders, representatives and elected officials who made the time to meet with our directly-impacted neighbors. THANK YOU!

It took immense courage for everyone to show up today and this movement is only possible when we organize together.

May we continue to collaborate and unite to pass legislation that will protect our immigrant communities in Massachusetts and beyond!
