On a community-wide level, NCSC took a leadership role in resurrecting the Newton branch of the Salvation Army that had been dormant for many years. Since the Salvation Army is able to act immediately in providing support and supplies in an emergency, this was deemed an important addition to the community. Convened three years ago, a committee of 12 community leaders has this year broadened its reach, recruiting local service clubs to offer volunteer assistance. NCSC Inc. was delighted to join the efforts of the many agencies receiving support and affiliated with the local Community Development Block Grant in celebration of the 25th Anniversary of this vital community program. A fair and dinner were held at the Newton Community Service Centers to highlight this special milestone.
Children are our most valuable assets, linking the past with the future.
We believe that we can better nurture them by steadfastly and creatively supporting parents. By the same token, NCSC is dedicated to providing services to improve the quality of life for senior members of the family who contribute the wisdom and understanding that comes with age. Our heartfelt thanks goes out to all the dedicated professionals and volunteers with whom we have worked, and to all those that have supported our efforts. Our charge is vast, but without your continued and expanded support we could never hope to fulfill our mission and proceed to raise the standards of service to our community.
