Charitable Organizations

Welcome to our Charitable Organization Guide. Here, we list organizations who’s soul purpose is to assist the poor, helpless, needy, troubled, and/or less fortunate through donations that flow directly to the individual or into research curing human diseases and illnesses.    All of these organizations are local and mostly benefit our community. We urge you to volunteer your most valued commodity ---  your time.

Examples of charitable organizations include non-profit, private schools, colleges, universities, hospitals, museums and cultural facilities. Trade groups, professional associations or social clubs generally do not qualify since they operate primarily for the benefit of their members.  For local social organizations visit our NETWORK EXCHANGE LISTINGS.

FREE PAINT FOR NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS
Each year, millions of gallons of paint remain unused or unsold by our nation's
retailers. The National Council on Paint Disposition, . a nonprofit environmental organization, is compiling a list of nonprofit organizations that are interested in receiving the free paint that might otherwise end up in a landfill. There is no charge to participate in this program and no requirement to take in quantities more than your organization can use. For more information, or to get involved in this program, please email marvgoodman@paintrecycling.org or call 732.309.2022. See www.paintrecycling.org/register.htm for more information
