Who we are and What we do

Who We Are

We are a group of people dedicated to the advancement of social and civic interests on Martha’s Vineyard.

What We do

Since 1930, the Holy Ghost Association has been known to all as a place of endless goodwill to the Island community. Whether it be by inviting island children to our annual Easter egg hunt, visits with Santa Claus, playing games a the Feast, feeding needy souls at Thanksgiving and Christmas, helping kids stricken by Aids, the countless funeral receptions hosted at no cost to the bereaved, the hundreds of thousands in scholarship money, the fundraisers for families in need, all of which amount to over a quarter of a million dollars in the last five years alone. Our members and our famous Benevolent Committee play a vital role in weaving the Vineyard fabric.
