Webster Community Chest: Neighbors Helping Neighbors

A Lifeline for Webster Families

​

When you are facing a crisis — hunger, eviction, illness — you need more than hope. You need real help from people who care.

Since 1948, the Webster Community Chest has been that help — providing food, emergency support, and hope for families right here in Webster.

Powered entirely by community donations — not government grants — the Chest is a lifeline when no one else can step in.

I’m proud to support their work. And I’m asking you to stand with me — because when we help each other, we strengthen all of Webster.

​

 

Serving Webster in Every Way

The Chest isn’t just about food — it’s about full support for families facing real emergencies:

  • Over 11,000 meals distributed to Webster residents in 2024
     

  • Financial aid to prevent evictions and utility shutoffs
     

  • Mobile meal deliveries to homebound families
     

  • Hygiene kits to restore dignity and health
     

  • Summer camp scholarships for local kids
     

  • Emergency aid for those with nowhere else to turn

When others run out of resources, the Chest keeps going — because of the people of Webster.

​

 

Why It Matters Now

​

The needs are growing, and Webster Community Chest is one of the few organizations left that can act quickly, flexibly, and compassionately.

​

But they can only do it if we help.
