Impact

Tufts is an economic engine and catalyst for local growth through employment, financial aid, visitor spending, property taxes, voluntary contributions, research funding, and partnerships.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Tufts offered support, resources, expertise, and knowledge from the earliest days, taking every opportunity to keep its neighbors safe and healthy.

Driven by our shared dedication to civic engagement, thousands of Tufts students, faculty, and staff contribute time and money to local community organizations and nonprofits.

Students, faculty, and staff from across the health sciences provide free medical care, health education, and nutrition programming for our neighbors every year.

Tufts works to ensure that children have access to educational opportunities that inspire them through community partnerships, vibrant local events, and perks for neighboring residents.

Through unique collaborations, we’re tackling pressing global challenges like preventing future pandemics, improving Black maternal health care, and creating climate change solutions
