Neighborhood Centers Inc.’s Emerging Needs Foundation is an endowment that enables the organization to successfully meet its obligations to the many Houstonians it serves.

An investment in the endowment is an investment in:

• The people who make Neighborhood Centers Inc. special – the endowment pays for ongoing training and development of our employees.

• The places that make Neighborhood Centers Inc. accessible – the endowment makes it possible for the organization to maintain its many service locations across the city.

• The infrastructure that makes it all possible – the endowment allows the agency to keep its information technology up to date, a key component in efficient and effective service delivery.

• The ability of Neighborhood Centers Inc. to access government grants – the endowment supplies the matching funds that are often necessary in order to apply for – and win – much-needed government funds in a highly competitive environment.
