The Greg Hill Foundation

The Greg Hill Foundation is a Woburn-based charity that responds quickly to requests for help from local families affected by sudden tragedy. Founded by Boston radio personality Greg Hill, it works by matching the charitable donations of his media audience, turning small gifts from many listeners into meaningful support. Anyone can nominate an individual or family who has recently suffered a tragedy to be considered as a beneficiary.

Since its start, the foundation has donated more than $30 million to over 10,500 beneficiaries, and it shares their stories alongside those of the heroes and corporate partners who make the giving possible. Throughout the year it promotes festivals, live music and annual events held in support of its causes. It also runs the Restaurant Strong Fund, which provides grants to restaurant owners and employees, giving the foundation a role in supporting the local hospitality industry.
