NPC Roll Out Virtual Nonprofit Resource Directory

Print Story | Email Story
GREAT BARRINGTON, Mass. — The Nonprofit Center of the Berkshires (NPC) has introduced a virtual Nonprofit Resource Directory to connect nonprofits to local and regional businesses that provide products and services to charitable organizations.
 
Located on the NPC web site, the directory features over 600 businesses from accounting firms to web site designers. 
 
Sponsored by Paper Crane Associates, a Massachusetts-based company providing strategic and business planning for nonprofits, the virtual directory provides direct links to vendor web sites. 
 
"We like to think of the Nonprofit Resource Directory as an economic development effort since nonprofits need many products and services, and ultimately have a huge impact on our economy," NPC founder Liana Toscanini said.
 
 
Featured partners that supported the creation of the directory include a. von schlegell & co, Adirondack Payroll Services, Berkshire Bank, Berkshire Net Results, Interim Executive Solutions, Kevin P. Martin & Associates, PC, Professionality Consulting, Prosper Nonprofit Advisors, and Silo Media.
 
The Nonprofit Center of the Berkshires has been helping nonprofits connect, learn and grow since 2016. To peruse the directory online, visit https://npcberkshires.org/virtual-resource-directory/.

PITTSFIELD, Mass. — More than 200 area veterans and their families were connected to a host of resources available to them on Saturday and had dinner, too. 
 
Organizations such as Hope for Warriors, American Veterans Archaeological Recovery, High & Mighty Therapeutic Riding Center, Veterans Affairs representatives and veterans service officers lined the hall at New Moon Lodge.
 
Local restaurant Biggins Diggins served up smoked prime rib, Cajun-smoked pork chops, smoked chicken, baked potatoes, and seasonal vegetables
 
The Freemasons hosted the inaugural Veterans Dinner and Resource Fair at their South Street lodge with hopes it will be replicated elsewhere.
 
Lodge Master Bernard Tremblay said these resources had never been gathered in one place before.
 
"We keep copious records of what events and things that go on during the course of our history here, and the last time we had any type of event like this for veterans was at the end of World War One that I can see at the Dedication of the Memorial Plaque up in the lodge room upstairs," he said. 
 
"So, this was very unique. I talked to the veteran services group around the perimeter, and they themselves said they haven't seen anything on a local level like this."
