NICC Volunteer & Charity Projects


Adopt A Highway Project
NICC Members clean debris from both sides of a stretch of Perryville Road
between Harrison Avenue and Newburg Road four times a year. Supplies are furnished.
All Club Members are encouraged to attend at least one Clean-Up a year. Clean-Ups are usually
scheduled for about10:00 a.m. on a Saturday and Club Members usually go to lunch afterwards.
Scheduled Clean-Ups are announced at Club Meetings, in Vette Visions and
posted on the Calendar of Events as they are determined.

RAMP Envelope Stuffing Project

(Regional Access & Mobilization Project)
NICC Members volunteer to help stuff envelopes for RAMP when they have a mailing going out.
RAMP supplies coffee and sometimes rolls in the morning. If the job lasts through lunch they usually buy us lunch.
Project time depends on how many volunteers and lasts until all of the envelopes are stuffed and ready to mail.
These are not regularly scheduled mailing projects and we usually get a call a couple of days in advance.
When called, the information will be posted here on the Web Site, added to the Calendar of Events and
an e-mail will be sent to all Club Members. Many hands make light work!
