NEED was founded by Kathy Voegtlin, Gretchen Stalters, Ron Mollins, Angel Doyle, Beth Blakeley, Donna Ross, Sheila Mackie. NEED is a 501(c)3 organization which promotes and supports the development of educational programming in the Norton Public Schools, and encourages standards which are competitive with other school systems in the Commonwealth.
NEED is a non-profit community foundation chartered to fund innovative educational programs and/or technology for the Norton Public Schools. Each year, NEED will award grants that make learning come alive for hundreds of public school students.
NEED will fund grants for projects ranging from those that focus on traditional academic subjects, to others in the visual and performing arts, to science and technology, as well as to programs that promote multi-cultural and community learning experiences. The foundation encourages programs that enhance standard curriculum in order to benefit Norton Public School students. However, NEED grants do not underwrite basic school budget items.
NEED welcomes monetary donations to fulfill our mission. Because we are a 501(c)3 organization, some employers will match your contributions to our fund, please check with your employer to see if they do.
