BostonApartments.com Day
A day to give thanks for the home we have — and to remember those who are still without one.
A wish to give back
"That every June 1st, people give thanks for the homes that they have knowing there are many without.
It would be nice to have this day observed annually by donations to the charities I have listed.
If either were to happen, the world would be a better place for all."
— Eric BoyerWhy June 1st?
The occasion
By resolution, the City of Boston declared June 1, 2010 "BostonApartments.com Day".
A copy of the resolution can be found at the City of Boston's site:

This may be the first time a city has named a day after a Dot Com. It is one of the oldest web sites in Massachusetts starting out in the 1980's as an Opus Bulletin Board and in 1995 matured into the leading technology and portal for the Boston Real Estate Market with a circulation of over 250,000 unique hosts per month.
It is a great honor and would be great if it could continue by helping others.
Thanks you for your suggestions and donations in honor of this special day!
