Josh Kraft for Mayor of Boston

Josh Kraft has spent 35 years working in the communities of Boston. Most recently, Josh was President of the New England Patriots Foundation, and for three decades worked with the Boys & Girls Clubs of Boston, including 12 years as its President and CEO.

Josh’s commitment to service began with his first job out of college as an outreach coordinator at a South Boston nonprofit. There he was responsible for making sure at-risk youth attended school in the morning, regularly visiting their families at home. It was in this role that Josh saw firsthand truancy, addiction and domestic violence, but also what is possible for communities when like minded individuals engaged in a common goal.

Josh has spent his entire career working in and around the neighborhoods of Boston – Roslindale, East Boston, Mattapan, Charlestown, South Boston, Roxbury, and more.

Serving Boston has been his passion and a great source of joy and purpose in his life, and he is excited to launch his candidacy for Mayor of Boston.
