We are consistently wowed by the various ways our wonderful community partners find to support NCS.
We are particularly thankful for our ongoing relationship with Deloitte as this past week, Deloitte team members delivered 200 care packages filled with snacks and vital hygiene products to distribute to NCS clients.

Donnavan, the superintendent at Louis Nine House (LNH) in the South Bronx, has been with NCS for over four years now. Donnavan exemplifies our “Neighbors Helping Neighbors” spirit as a member of the facilities team working at Louis Nine House and the greater NCS community. He never hesitates to step outside of his job description to help our clients and his coworkers as well.
Thank you thank you to the American Barber Institute for providing our clients with complimentary haircuts!

Happy birthday to everyone who celebrated in February!
Yesterday, in the Valentine’s Day spirit, clients at the NCS residence gathered to create some beautiful flower arrangements!
To celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day this year, Volunteers from Syneos Health visited Louis Nine House to prepare breakfast, hear a panel of NCS clients reflect on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s famous quotes, and remember all that he did for the civil rights movement and overall social progress in the US.
We are so lucky to have such dedicated staff and volunteers at NCS who were willing to work on Thanksgiving to provide our clients with an unforgettable holiday meal.

Thank you to Victoria's Secret and I Support the Girls for donating ONE HUNDRED gift bags with bras, underwear, hygiene products, and inspiring notes!
Thank you to our friends at Engel & Völkers for their generous donation to Chance for Change!
In the early 1980s, when congregations on the Upper East Side came together to form a community response to the growing homelessness epidemic (eventually coalescing into NCS), one of the first actions the group took was to run neighborhood meal programs, with each congregation choosing a different day to feed their neighbors in need. Forty years later, Temple Emanu-El still hosts lunch every Sunday.
David Oliver has been President of the NCS Board of Directors since 2008, but he began helping his neighbors long before then.
The Brick Presbyterian Church was a founding partner of NCS, and the church continues to support our work in many ways, including volunteering. Many Brick members of all ages participate in volunteer opportunities—and for the Froelichs, it’s a family affair!
Brinton Parson isn’t your average volunteer. Or Board Member. Or Director of Development.
It’s no surprise that food is one of the most requested items at NCS’s programs. Whether it's a warm meal or shelf-stable canned goods in our food pantries, food is essential. And with the cost of food up 13% over the past year and some neighborhood meal programs still suspended because of the pandemic, food donations have become even more pivotal for our clients.
