Each year, the Chest conducts a fund drive to raise monies to help our neighbors in need. ALL funds raised stay in the 14580 community to benefit residents. NEIGHBORS HELPING NEIGHBORS is the theme of the fund drive.

YOUR past donations helped to purchase medicines, pay rent or utilities to keep families safe in their homes, repair cars to help folks keep their jobs, and feed families when the cupboard was bare.

YOUR donations provided impoverished children with scholarships for summer camp programs and meals for home-bound elderly through University of Rochester Medical Home Care Meals on Wheels program. You provided an emergency underwear supply in the Webster Central School District elementary schools.

The Chest is contacted over 1000 times a year for assistance.

We also use approximately 12% of our aid budget to provide support to the needy and special services to the community through other local organizations.
