The Greater Cleveland Food Bank is dedicated to ensuring that every individual in the Cleveland area has access to nutritious food. By bridging the meal gap and providing essential resources, the organization promotes education and empowerment to combat food insecurity effectively. On the other hand, The City Mission focuses on assisting individuals and families facing homelessness, offering tailored programs to help them build stable and independent futures.
As the NSCC extends its support to these impactful charities, it invites attendees and bidders to participate in the charity auction and contribute towards a meaningful cause.
