We invite you to celebrate Baldwin’s birthday and support her awesome legacy through a small donation to @LWCSBoston tinyurl.com/35v6tkp7💐💐💐💐💐
The building remains owned by @LWCSBoston to this day! Baldwin’s legacy is singular and her work remains relevant.
Wishing a very happy birthday to the great Maria (pronounced “Ma-riah”) L. Baldwin, educator, activist and the 1st president of @LWCSBoston! Born in Cambridge, MA in 1856, Baldwin was known for her passion for literature and debate skills. 🎂🎉🎁💐
