Children’s, Youth & Family Programming
NOAH offers two engaging summer programs for youth: the Schoolyard Summer Program and Children’s/Youth Summer Soccer. Both programs provide children with fun, educational outdoor activities and address the community's need for bilingual recreational options. These programs are especially vital in East Boston, where limited green space and recreational opportunities mean local children often miss out on safe outdoor activities available to their peers in other areas of Boston.
In addition to our summer programs, NOAH hosts various free, bilingual family-friendly activities throughout the summer, including movie nights and kayaking! Check our social media and website for updates on schedules and special events.
/welcome-to-noah--community-development-organi/images/image-z59ea.jpeg)
Children’s/Youth Soccer
Since 2006, NOAH has proudly sponsored a free bilingual soccer program for children ages 6-12 at American Legion Field in East Boston. This summer program operates under a “drop-in” system, meaning no advance registration is required. We maintain a roster of attendees and ensure parental consent forms are obtained for all players.
The program fosters community-building and healthy physical activity while preserving one of East Boston’s limited green spaces. It provides an opportunity for many community members, particularly immigrants from South and Central America, to engage in soccer—a beloved communal sport.
We encourage team-building and promote active lifestyles for East Boston's youth in one of the area's few recreational spaces.

Meals: All participants receive a free breakfast and lunch daily.
