The Beverly Farms Improvement Society was incorporated approximately 50 years ago by local residents whose aim was to improve the Beverly Farms and Prides Crossing communities by enhancing and preserving their natural beauties. Today, the BFIS continues the original mission and has expanded its scope within the community. The BFIS engaged the services of a professional urban planning firm and financed a master plan for the Beverly Farms town center along with a parking plan. The BFIS also publishes a quarterly newsletter updating the community on local events and projects.

BFIS has also financed many beautification projects such as installing new benches, trash receptacles and lighting the trees that line West Street, as well as, planting seasonal plants and bushes to further beautify the area. Presently, BFIS is raising funds to purchase and install a fountain to be located at the Beverly Farms War Memorial and to install a beautiful pathway from West Street to the Beverly Farms Library.

BFIS relies on community donations and all donations are 100% tax deductible. To donate to the BFIS please send checks to "The Friends of BFIS" which is a 501 c (3) charitable corporation. 100% of all donations are donated back to the community. Kindly send donations to:
