Since 2015, United Way of Greater New Bedford and have partnered together to support families through Holiday Wishes.

Through Holiday Wishes, we strive to assist families and individuals who have fallen on hard times due to loss of job, death or severe medical conditions of spouse or child, unanticipated bills that arise due to natural/unplanned disasters, etc.

The ideal nominee is active in the Greater New Bedford area, needs assistance beyond the services provided by traditional health and human service agencies, has realistic and obtainable needs, and is often reluctant to ask for help even in dire situations.

Check out all of the details and nominate a family now through October 31st. Link in bio for all the details.

The Massachusetts Broadband Institute (MBI) has launched the Massachusetts Statewide Digital Equity Survey to better understand the needs of Massachusetts residents when it comes to computers and internet access.

This important survey will help MBI to develop a comprehensive Digital Equity Plan for the state and ensure that all Massachusetts residents can fully experience the opportunities that come from having the access and skills to use computers and the internet in their everyday life.

Your answers will help us make plans to improve internet services in our city. They will also help us use money from the government to support local programs for New Bedford residents.
