Harvard Extension has been more than just an institution for learning. Over the one-hundred years they have been in Cambridge, they have made it part of their mission to live with and give back to the community. They offer scholarships to Cambridge residents and employees and have helped hundreds of families afford a quality education close to home. Harvard Extension has exemplified the role a large institution should play in a community by going beyond the requirements and looking to do more for the community.
