Thank you to Enanta Pharmaceuticals for all you do for the Watertown Community. Together we can do so much!

Happy #Pride! At C4T we’re committed to making sure everyone can bring their unique self to work. This month, we’re celebrating Pride and LGBTQIA+ communities, both at C4T and in our own city. In partnership with Watertown Community Foundation, we volunteered to paint hearts carrying messages of inclusivity and hung them around Watertown to help spread the joy of Pride. Within C4T, we’ve hung notes that answer the question, “How do you help others bring their unique self to work?” to encourage all of us to create a culture of belonging. We’re also looking forward to our DEI Council leading a discussion on allyship! #PrideMonth

It was our second year sponsoring the Watertown Community Foundation’s 2024 Watertown Helps Out event, and the #C4TxTeam had a blast participating together. This year our team pitched in at Commander’s Mansion, Perkin’s School for the Blind, Greenway Bike Path, Watertown Housing Authority and painted hearts for next month’s Watertown Pride event. We’re proud to support the Watertown community that has been our home since 2018.

80 VOLUNTEERS across 5 different projects IN ONE DAY! Thank you, C4 Therapeutics, Inc. for bringing positive change to the Watertown community during Watertown Helps Out (WHO) 2024! From planting pollinator gardens at Perkins School for the Blind, to removing invasive plants along the Greenway Bikepath with Watertown Community Gardens, to tending grounds at the Watertown Housing Authority, you created seasons of beauty in our community. Your spring-cleaning efforts helped prepare the Commander’s Mansion for a summer’s worth of events, and your artistic contribution to the City of Watertown’s Pride Public Art Project will help Watertown celebrate our diverse and welcoming community. Thank you, C4 Therapeutics, for participating in and sponsoring WHO 2024!

As part of Watertown Helps Out (WHO) 2024, a month-long community service event, employees of Enanta Pharmaceuticals came out in the heat to help clean up trash along the Charles River. Thank you, Enanta, for your hard work and ongoing community engagement. Enanta was also a sponsor of this year's WHO, and their generous support is helping us bring 340+ volunteers performing over 500 hours of community service to 20+ volunteer opportunities across Watertown!💙

A great crew from Boylston Properties, Life Sciences at Arsenal Yards, including employees from Boylston Properties, AvenCell, and Mariana Oncology helped remove trash and invasive weeds on the banks of the Charles River yesterday as part of Watertown Helps Out (WHO) 2024 - a WCF-organized month of volunteer opportunities at nonprofits across Watertown. Thank you, Life Sciences at Arsenal Yards (Boylston Properties), for volunteering and for your generous sponsorship of this year's WHO 2024. Your sponsorship helped fund this month-long service event, which is on track to bring 325+ volunteers performing over 500 hours of community service to 18+ volunteer opportunities across Watertown!

As part of WHO 2024, many wonderful volunteers went by Watertown Cable Access Corp to help them digitally archive their video coverage of city meetings, high school sports games, and town events dating back to the 1970’s!
