no shortage of causes that are worthwhile. NPSWC, Inc. prides itself on
keeping your financial support primarily in our local community. We also use most of the funds we raise to assist individuals who may not receive support from other entities – individuals and families battling Sickle Cell Disease; individuals who have overcome obstacles and are working to further their education, and individuals who work to care for others – just to name a few. We cannot accomplish our mission without your support!
