“City Kids” Presents Laptops to Rafael Hernandez School

Roxbury school receives donation from Boston's City Realty Group

BOSTON - City Kids, a youth education nonprofit program developed by City Realty, donated Chromebook laptop computers to students at the Rafael Hernandez School in Roxbury. This donation is part of the City Kids mission to provide educational resources and opportunities for children growing up in Boston’s inner city neighborhoods.

The Rafael Hernandez School was the first dual-language school in Massachusetts, opening its doors in 1970. Students at the school plan to use these computers to aide in homework and after school programs.

City Kids was created by City Realty Managing Partners Steve Whalen and Fred Starikov. To date, the program has donated more than 1,000 laptops to local schools and educational programs.
