15th Annual Cambridge MLK Day of Service and Learning
For 14 years volunteers have been coming together on MLK DAY to provide critical necessities to people served by more than 70 organizations in Cambridge and surrounding towns. In 2024, more than 1,250 volunteers lent their helping hands during the Cambridge MLK Day of Service. The annual goal is to create an experience that brings the community together for the sole purpose of caring for our neighbors.
Designer Selection Procurement Documents
The following documents are used when drafting a request for proposals for architect and engineering services. These documents are used when selecting an architect to work on a building project estimated to cost over $100,000.00 or when the services are estimated to cost more than $10,000.00. These documents can also be used when choosing a designer or engineer for a non-building project, except where noted.

Elevator Rescues
Did you know that Fire Companies respond to about 200 elevator rescue calls per year?
