Creating Opportunities. Changing Lives.

Norwescap’s comprehensive array of services help people address immediate needs as well as build resiliency for long-term success. From Head Start centers to adult education scholarships; from our Food Bank distributing to 100+ pantries to breastfeeding and nutritional support for moms and children; from financial literacy and tax preparation to matched savings for a family’s first home or car, every Norwescap program helps people progress towards their goals. Altogether, our mission positively impacts the lives of over 30,000 individuals each year.

MEET NILDA

“When I first had to ask for help, I was reluctant. I didn’t want to be perceived as someone who was looking for a handout….someone who wasn’t working hard or doing her best. There’s this view that if you need assistance, you must not be doing everything you can to provide for your family. And that’s just not the truth.”
