Resiliency Fund
The Norwescap Resiliency Fund has been launched to help support those in need during the pandemic and beyond. Anyone who would like to support resiliency in our communities is welcome to donate online below. Funds will directly assist individuals with essential resources and basic necessities now and in the future.
Norwescap provides life-saving and life-changing services to over 30,000 New Jersey residents annually. Your support is vital and has a direct impact on the individuals and families we serve. We cannot do our work without you!
Your financial support ensures that a low-income single mother will get the childcare she needs to keep her job; it ensures that the heat will stay on this winter for an elderly grandfather on a fixed income; it ensures that families can stay in their homes; that hungry people are fed; and your contribution helps us to train people struggling financially how to become financially self-sufficient. A $1.00 contribution can provide a hungry family with 14 lbs. of food.
Your contribution is the catalyst for lasting, sustainable change in people’s lives.
Your investment in Norwescap is an investment in northwest New Jersey’s human capital. But your investment yields truly amazing financial results as well. Every dollar you contribute leverages between $8.00 and $9.00 in additional support and 95 cents on every dollar goes directly to programs and services. Overall, Norwescap’s impact on our communities is well over $70,000,000.
Thank you for your contribution.
