The Tidewater Collection
|
Happy 60th Birthday NOSC!The two main focuses of NOSC HR are philanthropy and social connection. Philanthropy stems from volunteering and community service through our two, all volunteer run Tidewater Collection boutiques at Naval Station Norfolk and Naval Medical Center Portsmouth. Social connection happens through volunteering and participation in a number of events hosted by or coordinated by NOSC and its members. Profits from The Tidewater Collection boutique sales are distributed every May back to local organizations that serve the military community such as Fisher House Foundation, Mercy Medical Angels, Pets For Patriots, United Through Reading and many others. In 2023 we were able to grant requests for more than $7,000 to 12 organizations. Having enough volunteers to run the shops has always been a challenge, but particularly in this post-COVID era. We have had some staffing changes and have welcomed the shift of former bookkeeper Tiki, as the new store manager and her new co-manager, Meghan McDermott, which leaves two very important jobs unfilled: Bookkeeper and Social Media Chair. Both are vital positions that need your help immediately. To become a Tidewater Collection volunteer or board member contact Tiki Cain at ttcmanager.noschr@gmail.com To join the NOSC Board please contact NOSC President MiMi Wilcox |
