We're building a better Worcester
About Us
508 C.H.E.E.R.S. is a Worcester nonprofit grounded in the belief that our young people are already becoming the leaders our community needs. We show up for them through service, advocacy, mentorship, and wellness initiatives so that they can show up for each other and for Worcester.
