boomerangs by MTW is coming to waltham!

Our Waltham store is being transformed and will close for shopping April 11, reopening this June as Boomerangs by MTW. Waltham remains open for donation drop-off during this time!

40% off all gift items

Because we love summer and we love our supporters, we're kicking off with a huge offer on all our gift items - online only!

Every gift item is hand-picked by our team from other non-profits, social-enterprises and local/small business that share our same values. What's even better? Each time you purchase a gift here, you are supporting our young adults through job-training, learning to run online and brick & mortar stores and working to take charge of their livces.

Discount available through end of June.

"They taught me how to be professional. They gave me a chance to be a leader with other youth on shift. It wasn’t just a bookstore; it was a home where I felt comfortable."
