Good morning, Lowell.

Three Lowell organizations - DIY Lowell, Pathway to Better Health and the African Community Center of Lowell - received 2026 grant funding from the Lenny Zakim Fund last Thursday at WGBH in Boston for advancing equity, health and community empowerment.

Lowell High School will offer Chapter 74 vocational programs next school year if business, higher education & parent representatives join advisory boards.
